Paper-days. In each of the Common Law Courts certain days were appointed in each term, called Special Paper Days, because the Court on those days proposed to hear the cases entered in the Special Paper for argument. They were also fixed in the Queen's Bench, Crown Paper-days for disposing of business on the Crown side of the Court. On these days no motions were heard. Since the coming into force of the Judicature Acts, arrangements similar to those above mentioned continue to be made.
