    Debt on a prison-bounds bond. Breach, that the defendant departed, &c. Plea, payment. Replication, non-payment, and issue.
    
      Mr. R. S. Coxe, for the defendant,
    objected to the bond, because he said that there was no such judgment as that recited in the bond.
   The Court (nem. con.) was of opinion that upon this issue the defendant was estopped by his bond to deny that there was such a judgment; and that the plaintiff was not bound to produce the record of the judgment.

Mr. Coxe then moved to amend the pleas.

But the Court said that they must be satisfied of the justice of the defence intended tó be made by the new pleas.

Mr. Goxe did not show that the proposed amendment was necessary to the justice of the case.

Verdict for plaintiff. Motion for new trial, and in arrest of judgment, overruled.
