Show it should be killed it pleases us to record the fact that the deveret news also is opposed to the attorneys lien bill now before the legislature our esteemed contemporary says quite pointedly and truly that under existing laws a plain tiffand defendant may settle a suit at any stage before or after judgment on terms to suit themselves but this bill virtually creates a third party to every lawsuit without whose consent no compromise of any bonding suit can be effected nor can satisfaction of any judgment rendered be enterer ente rei tor the attorney has a lien on the causa of action before judgment and upon the judgment after it is entered that is the case in a nutshell not only can lawyers hava the satisfaction ot stirring up a lawsuit but when once commenced under the proposed legislation then hold the strings and make the plaintiffs and defendants dance as long as it may suit the lawyers sweet pleasure better kill that bill gentlemen 0 tha thirty first session of the legis ture |
