Wiley v. Moore
Wiley v. Moore
2 Wend. 259
Opinion of the Court
The court have said that the plaintiff" cannot amend his declaration, nor the defendant his plea as of course, within the 20 days, by adding a new count or a new plea. (18 Johns. R 310.) This case falls within the spirit of those decisions. Adding the speaking of words giving a cause of action, new and distinct from that originally set forth, is equivalent to adding a new count,
Motion granted,
