157; 5 Vin. Abr. 588; and not between the plaintiff and defendant, as in the
case of plea to the jurisdiction, and therefore it must be demanded by the

defendant or his attorney. Id. ibid. A plea to the jurisdiction must be
pleaded in person, but a claim of conusance may be made by attorney. 1 Chit.
Pl. 403.

not oust another court of its jurisdiction, but only creates a concurrent

which conusance belongs to another. 3. A conusance of exclusive
jurisdiction; as that no other court shall hold pica, &c. Hard. 509 Bac. Ab.
