Common employment
Common employment. The general rule that a master is liable for damage caused by the negligence of his servant has the exception that where the person injured is the fellow-servant of and engaged in common employment with the person whose negligence causes the injury, the master is not liable in an action at Common law. The principle upon which the exception rests is that 'a servant who engages for the performance of services for compensation does as an implied part of the contract take upon himself, as between himself and his master, the natural risks and perils incident to the performance of such services; the presumption of law being that the compensation was adjusted accordingly, or, in other words, that these risks are considered in the wages' [per Balckburn, J., Morgan v. Vale of Neath R. Co., (1864) 5 B&S 578]. For review of cases, see Bray, J., in Cribb v. Kynoch, Ltd., (1907) 2 KB 548.

Equitable claims and defences at Common Law
Equitable claims and defences at Common Law; The (English) Common Law Procedure Act, 1854 (ss 83-86), enabled any defendant to plead the facts which would entitle him, if judgment were obtained against him, to relief in Equity from such judgment on equitable grounds, by way of defence, and also enabled the plaintiff to avoid such defence by a replication upon equitable grounds. A plea on equitable grounds was good at Law only where an absolute and unconditional injunction wold be granted in Equity.The (English) Judicature Act, 1925, s. 36, and follow-ing sections, reproducing s. 24 of the (English) Judicature Act, 1873, has combined the jurisdiction of the Courts of Common Law and Equity so that legal and equitable remedies may be granted in the same Court but without affecting the nature of the rights. The object is to avoid multiplicity of actions and it does not confer a new jurisdiction (The James Westall, 1905, P., p. 51), and if there is any conflict or variance between the rules...
