• In Re Ambrose Lake Tin and Copper Co

  17 Apr 1878 8 ChD 643, CA

  PRACTICE — Rules of court, 1875, order lviii., r. 15 — Extension of Time to appeal.
  COCKBURN, L.C.J.:— We think that this is a case in which, looking at the special circumstances, we may enlarge the time for appealing. COTTON, L.J.:— I put it expressly on this, that notice of appeal had been given within the time, so that it cannot be said that the other side did not know of the determination to appeal, and I think that a withdrawing for a day of the notice ought not to preclude the party from appealing.

• Associated Home Co v Whichcord

  23 May 1878 8 ChD 457, Ch D

  PRACTICE — Third Party Notice — Rules of Court, 1875, Order XVI., r. 17.
