Reporters:
Curia.

We have never gone so far ‍​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍as to allow an amendment of mesne process against the body, ‍​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍where it is tested out of term. Let the capias be set aside, on ‍​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍the defendant’s stipulating not to bring an action of false imprisonment.

Griffen. An ‍​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍action is already brought.

Curia. Then you must discontinue it, on payment of ‍​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍the costs of your action.

Rule accordingly.
