FORM (bouvier) | FORM, practice. The model of an instrument or legal-proceeding, containing
the substance and the principal terms, to be used in accordance with the
laws; or, it is the act of pursuing, in legal proceedings, and in the
construction of legal instruments, the order required by law. Form is
usually put in contradistinction to substance. For example, by the operation
of the statute of 27 Eliz. c. 5, s. 1, all merely formal defects in
pleading, except in dilatory pleas, are aided on general demurrer.
2. The difference between matter of form, and matter of substance, in
general, under this statute, as laid down by Lord Hobart, is, that "that
without which the right doth sufficiently appear to the court, is form;" but
that any defect "by reason whereof the right appears not," is a defect in
substance. Hob. 233.
3. A distinction somewhat more definite, is, that if the matter pleaded
be in itself insufficient, without reference to the manner of pleading it,
the defect is substantial; but that if the fault is in the manner of
alleging it, the defect is formal. Dougl. 683. For example, the omission of
a consideration in a declaration in assumpsit; or of the performance of a
condition precedent, when such condition exists; of a conversion of property
of the plaintiff, in trover; of knowledge in the defendant, in an action for
mischief done by his dog of malice, in action for malicious prosecution, and
the like, are all defects in substance. On the other hand, duplicity; a
negative pregnant; argumentative pleading; a special plea, amounting to the
general issue; omission of a day, when time is immaterial; of a place, in
transitory actions, and the like, are only faults in form. Bac. Ab. Pleas,
&c. N 5, 6; Com. Dig. Pleader, Q 7; 10 Co. 95 a; 2 Str. 694 Gould; Pl. c. 9,
Sec. 17, 18; 1 Bl. Com. 142.
4. At the same time that fastidious objections against trifling errors
of form, arising from mere clerical mistakes, are not encouraged or
sanctioned by the courts, it has been justly observed, that "infinite
mischief has been produced by the facility of the courts in overlooking
matters of form; it encourages carelessness, and places ignorance too much
upon a footing with knowledge amongst those who practice the drawing of
pleadings." 1 B. & P. 59; 2 Binn. Rep. 434. See, generally, Bouv. Inst.
