SUIT
(bouvier)
SUIT. An action. The word suit in the 25th section of the judiciary act of
1789, applies to any proceeding in a court of justice, in which the
plaintiff pursues, in such court, the remedy which the law affords him. An
application for a prohibition is therefore a suit. 2 Pet. 449. According to
the code of practice of Louisiana, art. 96, a suit is a real, personal or
mixed demand, made before a competent judge, by which the parties pray to
obtain their rights, and a decision of their disputes. In that acceptation,
the words suit, process and cause, are in that state almost synonymous. Vide
Secta, and Steph. Pl. 427; 3 Bl. Com. 395; Gilb. C. P. 48; 1 Chit. Pl. 399;
Wood's Civ. Law, b. 4, c. p. 315; 4 Mass. 263; 18 John. 14; 4 Watts, R. 154;
3 Story, Const. Sec. 1719. In its most extended sense, the word suit,
includes not only a civil action, but also a criminal prosecution, as
indictment, information, and a conviction by a magistrate. Ham. N. P. 270.
