## Opinion text

Learned, J.
Held. That the proceedings in an action must be taken by and in the name of the attorney of record ; that before another attorney can act or be heard in the cause, a regular substitution must be made so that the record shows his authority, that a party has no right to interfere with the due and orderly conduct of the suit by his attorney; aud therefore ordered that Mr. Cantine had no standing in court as attorney for the plaintiff) and that this motion could not be entertained.
