PLEA OF INNUENDO
Counsel submitted that the mo- ment the trial Judge went into the question of imputation he entered Immediately the plea of innuendo, which was not open to him be- cause it was not pleaded. The words were in themselves defama- tory apart from the queation of whether or not they were capable of a defamatory meaning.
Counsel added that he could not
find any authorities in the Supreme Court Summary Jurisdiction for the precedent set in an old case whereby three steps were necessary in a Summary Jurisdiction appeal. The case in question was Leung Chi-chim vs. Leung Shiu-hing, in which the then trial Judge held that three steps were necessary for an appeal, namely an ex-parte ap-- plication for leave to appeal on which occasion the Court would direct that a second application should be made, after notice to the other side, in order to give them the opportunity to show cause why leave to appeal should not be granted, and if such leave was granted then the appeal itself would be heard on the third oc- casion.
RULING ASKED FOR Counsel said he would like the Court to give a ruling on this point. in order to save expense and time. ' as he could not find any authori- ties in support of the precedent set in the case mentioned.
The Chief Justice remarked that the precedent was distinguishable from the present case in that no notice had been given to the other side.
Mr D'Almada expressed his agreement, but added that the practice had been followed by Bir Joseph Kemp and Mr. Justice R. Lindsell.
His Lordship said that with all due respect to the learned judges, he differed from the Full Court de- cision in the case mentioned. As
far as he was concerned he was not disposed to insist that the pre- cedent be followed, but he could not say more' apart from the fact that decision was fortified by the knowledge that his brother Judge agreed with him, As far as the present case was concerned, it would not be necessary to use in- termediate steps.
Leave to appeal was granted, and before the Court adjourned HisTM Lordship informed Mr. D'Almada that he was at a dim-

Judgment For Plaintiffs

On an $115.35 being money due instalment under a hire-purchase agreement for a man Minx saloon car, was concluded before Mr. Justice Hayden at the Sum- alary Court yesterday afternoon.
Mr. W. Keith Robinson” appear- ed for the plaintiff and Mr. M. A. da Bilva for the defendant.
It will be recalled that both parties agree that there was tr hire-purchase agreement between the parties dated October 4, 1935; that an instalment of $68,20 due on November i was unpaid: that the car was seized on November 20.
Yesterday, Mr. Robinson sub- mitted that the defendant must pay artears of rent up to the day that the contract was terminated. If that were not so, in a 31-day month the hirer could break his contruct on the 30th and would not be liable to pay any rent at all,
THE DEFENCE
Mr. Silva submitted that there was no atatement in the agreement that the owner was entitled, as one of his remedies, to sue for ap apportionable part of the rent of hire up to the day of seizure of the car.
"In every case that came before. the Court as far as my experience and research goes," said Mr. Silve "there is only the question to sue for instalments in arrests but not for a proportionate part of the rent for hire."
His Lordship gave judgment for the plaintiffs for $59.20 already paid into Court and costs to the day of payment into Court; the de- tendant to have costs subsequent
to payment into Court.
