place where it is by law authorized to be held; and the performance of some
public act, indicative of a design to perform the functions of a court.
2. In another sense, the judges, clerk, or prothonotary, counsellors
and ministerial officers, are said to constitute the court.
3. According to Lord, Coke, a court is a place where justice is
judicially administered. Co. Litt. 58, a.
4. The judges, when duly convened, are also called the court. Vide 6
Vin. Ab. 484; Wheat. Dig. 127; Merl. Rep. h.t.; 3 Com. Dig. 300; 8 Id.
386; Dane's Ab. Index, h.t.; Bouv. Inst. Index, h.t.
5. It sometimes happens that the judges composing a court are equally
divided on questions discussed before them. It has been decided, that when
such is the case on an appeal or writ of error, the judgment or decree is
affirmed. 10 Wheat. 66; 11 Id. 59. If it occurs on a motion in arrest of
judgment, a judgment is to be entered on the verdict. 2 Dall. Rep. 388. If
on a motion for a new trial, the motion is rejected. 6 Wheat. 542. If on a
motion to enter judgment on a verdict, the judgment is entered. 6 Binn. 100.

judgment of the court below is affirmed. 1 Arch. Pr. 235. So in Cam. Scacc.
1 Arch. Pr. 240. But in error coram nobis, no judgment can be given if the
judges are equally divided, except by consent. 1 Arch. Pr. 246. When the

Johns. Rep. 118 4 Wash. C. C. Rep. 332, 3. See Division of Opinion.
6. Courts are of various kinds. When considered as to their powers,
they are of record and not of record; Bac. Ab. Courts, D; when compared. to
each other, they are supreme, superior, and inferior, Id.; when examined as
to their original jurisdiction, they are civil or criminal; when viewed as
to their territorial jurisdiction, they are central or local; when divided
as to their object, they are courts of law, courts of equity, courts
martial, admiralty courts, and ecclesiastical courts. They are also courts
of original jurisdiction, courts of error, and courts of appeal. Vide Open
Court.
7. Courts of record cannot be deprived of their jurisdiction except by
express negative words. 9 Serg. & R. 298; 3 Yeates, 479 2 Burr. 1042 1 Wm.
Bl. Rep. 285. And such a court is the court of common pleas in Pennsylvania.
6 Serg. & R. 246.
8. Courts of equity are not, in general, courts of record. Their
decrees touch the person, not lands. or goods. 3 Caines, 36. Yet, as to
personalty, their decrees are equal to a judgment; 2. Madd. Chan. 355; 2
Salk., 507; 1 Ver. 214; 3 Caines, 35; and have preference according to
priority. 3 P. Wms. 401 n.; Cas. Temp. Talb. 217; 4 Bro. P. C. 287; 4 Johns.
Chan. Cas. 638. They are also conclusive between the parties. 6 Wheat. 109.
Assumpsit will lie on a decree of a foreign court of chancery for a sum
certain; 1 Campb. Rep. 253, per Lord Kenyon; but not for a sum not
ascertained. 3 Caines, 37, (n.) In Pennsylvania, an action at law will lie
on a decree of a court of chancery, but the pleas nil debet and nul tiel
record cannot be pleaded in such an action. 9 Serg. & R. 258.
