IN ORIGINAL JURISDICTION.
BEFORE HIS HONOUR ME. H. H. J. GOMPERTZ (PUTANE JUDGE).
MICHELL ↑ LEMM.
In the action between Captain T. A. Mitchell, plaintiff, and John Lanm, defendant, a motion was brought forward for the payment of special
damages.
*Mr. C. G. Alabaster, instructed by Mr. H. W. Looker (of Messrs. Deacon, Looker and Deacon) appeared for the plaintiff, sad Mr. M. W Slade, instructed by Mr. P. M. Hodgson (ot Meters Ewens and Harston) represented the
Loferant.
Mr. Alabaster moved that the defendant be ordered to pay to the plaintiff as special damages the sum of $1,500, being the amount the plaintiff has already paid to the Trustee in Bankruptcy, together with each sum not exceeding $15,715,40, as the plaintiff is liable to pay to the said Trustee. The facts, "Counsel said, were set out in Mr. Looker's
afidavit.
Mr. Slude objected to the use of this affidavit. He did it in order to get the facts properly proved in the event of an appeal. The position was that the action had been tried and a verdict given for the plaintiff, but the question of special damage was left for the Special damage consideration of the Court, should be proved in the same way as it would be proved if left to a jury. What wore the whole series of actions for which the plaintiff claimed that the defendant was able to pay cost? His Lordship had not devided this, but he must Eave accurate knowledge of the nature of each.
His Lordship As a matter of fact, there are two lists, and the list in paragraph 3 the Chief Justice has already allowed.
Mr. Slade Subject to taxation I admitted those in Chambers.
His Lordship-In paragraph 4 you say they are not admitted.
Mr. Slade They are the bills of pests which may or may not have been delivered by the plaintiff's solicitors in respect of certain actions described in that paragraph. I only want formal proof.
Mr. Alabaster-Subject to our proving the items, I come here on the question of principle, Mr Slado-The Court cannot adjudicate on the question of principle until it knows what the facts are.
Mr. Alabaster understood it was not asual
to call evidence on a motion, and he said that the Chief Justice had given leave to move the
Chart to prove those items.
His Lordship What do you propose judy ment on this motion and proof of the items before the Registrar P
Mr. Alabaster-Yes. Mr. Slade -That would be quite agreeable to them, but I have specião objections to certain items which must be decided by the Court.
Mr. Alabaster Mr Looker's affidavit described fairly fully what the items are in respect of.
His Lordship-How do you proposeto pro-
coed now?
Mr. Alabaster-I set out the facts in this affidavit and move the Court to order the plaintiff to pay subject to our proving the items.
His Lordship-I understand from the other side that apart from the broad general principle of law, certain items are objected to.

His Lordship-Paid to the Trustee for what? Mr. Alabaster said the plaintif had to pay the Trustee 8100 a month towards liquidation of his bankruptcy debts. He had already paid Comusel also asked $1,500, and practically all his bankraptay debts were in respect of costs. that the plaintiff be freed from the stigma and disabilities of bankraptoy which wore due to the defendant's wrong: that was to say, that he should not have to go on paying this $100 month, but that the defendant should either pay that sam until the discharge of the liability, or that he should pay off the bankruptcy and enable the plaintiff to obtain his discharge. There was a great deal of authority for the proposition that where wrongs of adefendant involved a plaintiff in legal liability to pay money to a third party, the amount of that liability could be included in the damages. After quoting these authorities Mr. Alabaster submit ted that the wrongs of the defendant involved the plaintiff in the Bability to pay the Trustee in Bankruptcy $100 a month until he got his discharge.
His Lordship-How long is that to go on?
Mr. Alabaster-As an honourable man who bus done no wrong, I submit lus ought not to apply for his discharge until his creditors are paid of.
His Lordship-How long will that take? Mr. Alabaster-About fifteen years. His Lordship. If he gets his $1,500, and the $15,000 he is liable to pay, then he gets his discharge?
Mr. Alabaster-Yes. He is paking for money out-of-pocket, and the rest will go to get his discharge.

Mr. Alabaster-Yes.
Mr. Slado aid he did not intend to again argue the point of the plaintiff saing without joining the Trustee in Bankruptor. That point be argued before the Chief Justice, and another paint he argued, and which his Lordship did not decide, was that in the statement of claim in this action the plaintiff claimed from the defendant a large sum of money which, he alleged that he was able to pay by reason of the wrongfal net of the Counsel argued that damage to be recovered must be proved to have been suffered as alleged, and the fact that in the interval between the wrong being committed and the bringing of the action the plaintiff had become a bankrupt, had entirely got rid of his liability to pay the debta for costs which were alleged in the statement of claim.
