Langford.—(Condition in Restraint of Trade) 905 Ex parte Mawby.—(Churchwarden-Election-Right LONDON, OCTOBER 21, 1854. OF INJUNCTIONS. (Continued from p. 368). 906 There is a class of cases in which the doctrine of elief against fraud has been carried to an extent which seems almost to defeat the very object of that doctrine, and to repress fraud in one party by supporting it in nother. I allude to the cases in which persons having concealed the truth, or made false representations repecting their legal and fair claims, for the purpose of nabling fraud to be committed upon others, or upon the policy of the law, have been restrained by equity rom afterwards enforcing their claims, even as between themselves and the parties to the fraud. (Gale v. Lindo, 1 Vern. 475; Id. 348; Montefiori v. Montefiori, I W. Bl. 363; see also Lamlee v. Hanman, 2 Vern. 166, and Turton v. Benson, Id. 764; 1 P. Wms. 496). But in cases of this kind, where equities are equal, he rule “Qui prior est in tempore potior est in jure” pplies. (Roberts v. Roberts, 3 P. Wms. 66). In some of the cases above mentioned it is to be ›bserved that the instruments given were originally without valuable consideration, and the transaction altogether based on a fraudulent purpose; but the leadng case on this subject is Neville v. Wilkinson, (1 Bro. C. C., App., 543), in which the legal title was originally fair, and based on a valuable consideration, and yet the plaintiff at law was deprived in equity of the benefit of much his legal title, because he had so dealt with it as to make it an instrument of fraud on a third party. In that case the defendant was the plaintiff's solicitor, and, having had various pecuniary transactions with him, had claims against him for a valuable consideration to a considerable amount. On the occasion of the plaintiff's negotiations for a marriage with the daughter of Robinson, the defendant was induced by the persuasions of the plaintiff to make to Robinson a false representation of the plaintiff's debts, and in particular to conceal the VOL. XVIII. 00 PRICE 18. debt to himself. It did not appear that the extent of the plaintiff's debts was a condition of the father's consent. The Lord Chancellor said the defendant confessed a confederacy to cheat Robinson, and he would not lay it down as a rule, that fraud in cases of that nature must be upon an article expressly contracted for; and granted an injunction to restrain the defendant from proceeding to recover any debt due before the marriage of Neville, except certain claims agreed upon between the parties; and he delivered his opinion that the defendant could not ever recover that debt against the plaintiff. (See also, as to the effect of a private agreement in fraud of a marriage contract, Palmer v. Neave, 11 Ves. 165). We take now, out of its order, the subject of injunetions to restrain infringement of patents, as a subject on which, perhaps, the earliest use of the common-law jurisdiction, by way of injunction, is likely to be exercised. In order to prevent irreparable mischief, or to suppress multiplicity of suits and vexatious litigation, equity interferes by injunction to restrain the infringement of alleged patent rights for inventions. (Vide 2 Story's Eq. Jur. 209; Jer. Eq. Jur., b. 3, c. 2, s. 1, p. 327; 1 Fonb. Eq. 34, notis). The jurisdiction, in restraining the infringement of patents, is in aid of a legal right; the plaintiff coming to the Court on the assumption that he has a legal right, and the Court granting its assistance on that ground. (Per Lord Cottenham, C., in Bacon v. Jones, 4 My. & C. 436). At the present day it is not generally necessary that the plaintiff should establish his right at law in order to come into equity, the right appearing primâ facie on record by the letters-patent. (Mitf. Pl. 147; Hicks v. Raincock, Dick, 647; and see 2 Atk. 391; Anon., 1 Ves. sen. 476). See the case of The Universities of Oxford and Cambridge v. Richardson, (6 Ves. 689, 707), where the principle in regard to patents is stated to be, that if a party gets his patent and pu's his invention in JUI. execution, and has proceeded to a sale, that may be called possession under it. However doubtful it may be whether the patent can be sustained, equity will hold that possession under a colour of title is ground enough to enjoin, and to continue the injunction till it shall be proved at law that it is only colour, and not real title. (To be continued). PROSPECTUS OF THE LECTURES To be delivered during the ensuing Educational Term by the several Readers appointed by the Inns of Court. CONSTITUTIONAL LAW AND LEGAL HISTORY.
