A Treatise on the Principles and Practice of the Action of Ejectment: And Statutory Substitutes (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from A Treatise on the Principles and Practice of the Action of Ejectment: And Statutory Substitutes

As the action, as now administered, has been shorn of its fictions, and differs but little in its general features from other actions at law, there no longer exists the necessity of those minute specifications of the details of pleading and practice which abound in the works of the earlier writers. The plead ings, therefore, have been given only incidental attention, no more being attempted than to show their general structure and the character of the allegations. On the other hand, special emphasis has been placed on the proofs. The nature of the evidence required to sustain or defeat the action has been very fully considered and the different forms of title that mav be involved have received corresponding treatment. The citation, while liberal, does not profess to be exhaustive. The work is essentially a treatise, not a digest.
