I  have  been  a  good  deal  embarassed  as  to  what  should  be  done  in  this
case.  It  is  claimed  that  in  Ontario  the  time  for  appealing  should  run  irom
the  time  the  judgment  was  pronounced,  and  that  as  the  judgment  in  this
case  was  pronounced  before  vacation,  the  application  should  have  been  made
during  vacation.  I  was  of  opinion  at  first  that  the  party  was  not  obliged  to
apply  during  vacation,  but  this  application  need  not  be  decided  on  this
point.  The  decision  was  pronounced  in  June,  but  the  minutes  were  not  set-
tled and  entered  until  some  time  in  the  autumn.  The  question  is  whether
the  time  runs  from  the  date  of  the  pronouncing  of  the  judgment,  or  from
the  entry  of  the  certificate.  I  understand  the  practice  in  Quebec  to  be
that  the  judgment  is  always  entered  as  of  the  date  on  which  it  was  pro-
nounced, and  therefore  no  question  can  arise  as  to  appeals  coming  from  the
Province  of  Quebec ;  and  also  in  Ontario  where  there  is  simply  a  judgment
declaring  that  the  appeal  is  dismissed  or  allowed,  as  the  case  may  be,  and
there  is  nothing  more  to  be  done" ;  but  when  the  decision  requires  some-
thing more  to  be  done  at  the  settlement  of  the  minutes,  as  in  this  case,
whether  the  plaintiff  should  be  held  personally  liable  for  the  costs,  then  I
think  until  the  settlement  of  the  minutes  and  entry  of  the  certificate,  a  parly
should  not  be  compelled  to  take  his  appeal.  lam  therefore  inclined, to
think  the  time  ought  to  run  in  this  case  from  the  date  of  the  entry  of  the  cer-
tificate, which'  was  entered  on  the  14th  of  November  last.
