PROMULGATES FIRST REVISION OF EQUITY PROCEDURE IN 3d YEARS, Granting or Preliminary Orden with? out Notice Prohibited?Temporary Restraining Orders Restricted, Washington, Nov. ????In promul- ( gating today the first revision of the equity rules of federal courts in the last (0 years, the supreme court of the United states prohibited the granting of preliminary injunctions without notice ami restricted the granting of temporary 'restraining or? ders The court embodied In the new rule many of the points of the Clayton anti-Injunction bill for which labor leaders have been fighting which has passed the house and waits in the sen ale. Instead Of temporary restraining orden being issued without notice upon presentation to a federal judge on general allegation that immediate and i: reparable damage is about to be Inflicted, the new rule requires that It must be shown by specific facts set forth In affidavits or otherwise that ?ueh damages win result, when a temporary restraining order is issued a hearing on the injunction must be given within ten days, Heretofore no time limit was fixed by the rubs. The new rules do not require those procuring the restraining order to give a bond or the judge to set forth In the order his reasons for grrtnlng it. These were provisions in the Clay? ton bill. Chief Justice White did ncd refer to the anti-injunction rule In announc? ing the changes in the old rules, but did emphasize the statement that the revision was designed to simplify pro? cedure, remove delay and reduce cost. The antique form of pleading is ab? rogated In the new rules for the mod? ern forms of "code." United States judges are required, with few excep? tions, to take testimony in court in? stead of appointing referees to do so; and appellate courts are authorized more generally to dispose of suits In? stead of reversing on errors.
