Remittitur of record. Formerly, when a writ of error in the Exchequer Chamber abated or was discontinued, the transcript must have been remitted, and a remittitur entered, before a defendant could sue out execution; but this was afterwards unnecessary, for the record remained in the court below, and execution was therefore, in all cases, issued out of that court, H.T. 4 Wm. 4, r. 16.
