SUPERSEDEAS
(bouvier) | SUPERSEDEAS, practice, actions. The name of a writ containing a command to
stay the proceedings at law.
2. It is granted on good cause shown that the party ought not to
proceed. F. N. B. 236. There are some writs which though they do not bear
this name have the effect to supersede the proceedings, namely, a writ of
error, when bail is entered, operates as a supersedeas, and a writ of
certiorari to remove the proceedings of an inferior into a superior court
has, in general, the same effect. 8 Mod. 373; 1 Barnes, 260; 6 Binn. R. 461.
But, under special circumstances, the certiorari has not the effect to stay
the proceedings, particularly where summary proceedings, as to obtain
possession under the landlord and tenant law, are given by statute. 6 Binn.
R. 460; 1 Yeates, R. 49; 4 Dall. R. 214; 1 Ashm. R. 230; Vide Vin. Ab. h.t.;
Bac. Ab. h.t.; Com. Dig. h.t.; Yelv. R. 6, note.
