Definition :

Supplemental Bill, Bill in the nature of a. this bill and the above-named bill were usually confounded together; but a prominent distinction between them seems to have been that a supplemental bill was properly applicable to those cases only where the same parties and the same interest remained before the Court; whereas an original bill, in the nature of a supplemental bill, was properly applicable when new parties with new interests, arising from events which have happened since the institution of the suit, were brought before the Court, 2 Dan. Chan. Pr., 5th Edn. 1396-1401.
