    READ vs. BAILEY.
    Ante, 60.
    Plaintiff needs not a judge's order to his interrogatories, & cannot file new ones, without leave to amend.
    Ellery, for the plaintiff,
    during the vacation, filed a supplemental answer, in which he inserted additional interrogatories, and had obtained a judge's order, at chambers, that the defendant might answer them.
    Grymes, for the defendant.
    The plaintiff, if he be at all entitled to have his interrogatories answered by the defendant, does not need any judge's order. That is required in cases only when the defendant propounds interrogatories to the plaintiff.
    A supplemental petition is an amendment to the original one. The party is never allowed to amend of course. He must apply for leave to the Court, and shew good ground; and his opponent must have an opportunity of shewing cause against the amendment. This, therefore, cannot be done at the chambers of a judge.
   Or this opinion was the court.
