It was under-flood at the time, by the defendant’s attorney, that the judgments fhould carry Supreme Court coils. Query. May not the clerk tax them accordingly ?
1Per curiam
No : the plaintiff fhould have taken his cognovit and entered his judgment for a fum above 250 dollars, to entitle to Supreme Court coils; they cannot other-wife be allowed.
