December 7, 1899. CIRCUIT COURT OF UNITED STATES, Eastern District of Pennsylvania, Third Circuit. 18. May 24, 1899, it is ordered that there be added to the rules in equity of this court the following: Rule XVIII. In every proceeding in equity now pending or hereafter to be begun, including patent causes, each party having a sepa rate interest in the subject of controversy shall, within ten days after the taking of testimony shall have been concluded (unless the time be extended by agreement or by order), file with the examiner a statement of the facts claimed by such party to be established by the evidence. The statement shall be positive, not argumentative. It shall follow an orderly method, and shall be divided into paragraphs consecutively numbered. As a rule, no paragraph shall contain more than one fact; but when any fact is claimed to be inferable from other facts, the primary facts and the ultimate fact deduced therefrom shall all be distinctly stated, and in the same paragraph. Every such statement shall be printed and reported with the testimony; and, in discussing the evidence, giving the reasons why the 1 For rule as originally adopted, see 31 C. C. A. clxvi., 90 Fed. clxvi. 98 F. (iii) facts proposed should or should not be regarded as established, the briefs of each counsel shall follow the order adopted in the said statements of fact respectively, supporting first his own propositions, and afterwards attacking the propositions of his opponents. Each brief shall also contain a separate and distinctly enumerated statement of the legal propositions relied on, supported by such arguments and citation of authorities as counsel may deem appropriate; but the legal arguments shall, as far as possible, pursue the order of the statements of fact. Adopted May 24, 1899. It is ordered that Equity Rule XVIII (adopted May 24, 1899) be amended by adding thereto the following proviso: Provided, that in any proceeding in which a master shall be appointed, the foregoing requirements may be disregarded; and such appointment must be applied for and will be made in every case (including those now pending) to which this rule relates, except where the court shall, on cause shown, deem it unnecessary or inexpedient to do so. The same person may, in the first instance, be empowered to act both as master and examiner, or the reference to a master may, at the discretion of the judge, be deferred until after the report of an examiner shall have been filed. It will be the duty of the master to find all the material facts and to state his legal conclusions, subject, in all respects, to review by the court, upon exceptions to his report, which shall be filed as required by rule 83.
