[238] fishee v. dudding. June 12, 1841. [S. C. 3 Scott, N. K. 516 ; 9 D. P. C. 872 10 L. J. C. P. 323.] The time of entering of the judgment, from which period interest is given on the judgment debt by 1 & 2 Viet. c. 110, s. 17, is the day on which judgment is signed in the master's book, and not the day on which the roll is carried in and the judgment entered of record. - So, although the entry in the master's book has been amended upon a revision of the taxation of costs, the original date of the entry in the master's book remaining unaltered.

On the same 20th of May, the total amount of the debt and of the costs so increased, was paid and received, without prejudice, the plaintiff claiming interest on the 6431. 5s. 6d. from the 8th of January. Goulburn Serjt. now moved for a rule, calling upon the plaintiff to shew cause, why satisfaction should not be entered on the record, the sum recovered by the judgment having been paid. Bompas Serjt. shewed cause in the first instance (vide post, 242 (J)). By the act for the abolition of imprisonment for debt (1 & 2 Viet. c. 110), it is enacted, sect. 17...
