Opinion

A COMMISSION of Nisi prius was directed to Francis Hanvey, Armiger, one of the Justices of the King’s Bench, and the return was that the trial was coram Francis Harvey, Milite, one of the Justices, &c. Yet it was held well enough on a writ of error in K. B. for perhaps he was Armiger, at the time the commission *issued and was made a Miles before the trial. It was said that otherwise all the trials in the circuit would be overset. Bendl. 193.
