The Council have awarded Special Certi ficates to Arthur P. Orr and Stirling J . Seeds. The remaining candidates have been post poned. New Solicitors. THE following were admitted during January,

to be continued. the defendant opposed" the plaintiff having his costs, but Eve, J., declined to discuss the question then. The rest of the estate having been got in, the further consideration now came on for hearing, the only question being one of costs. It was contended for the plaintiff that he was entitled to them as a matter of course, and for the defendant it was contended that the reservation of costs in an administration action did not entitle the plaintiff to have his costs paid out of the estate, and that if he were entitled to his costs down to judgment, he ought not to be allowed his costs of taking the account. Peterson, J., referred to Order LV., rule 10 (Irish Order LV., rule 14), and said that he was of opinion that it was the settled practice that where in an administration action a plaintiff obtained judgment and nothing was said as to costs, he was entitled to his costs down to judgment, and that where an account was ordered by the judg ment he was entitled, in the absence of misconduct, to his costs of taking the account. The costs of the plaintiff must be allowed accordingly. (Reported The Law Journal, Vol. LI., 64.) Dates of Spring Assizes, 1916. NORTH-EAST CIRCUIT. Co. Meath.—At Trim, March 1st, at 11 o'clock. Co.
