The opinion of the court was delivered by
Garrison, J.
This is a rule to show cause why a judgment by confession should not be set aside for failure to file the notice required by the supplement of May 28th, 1907 (Pamph. L., p. 563; Comp. Stat., p. 3423) to the act concerning proceedings on bonds and mortgages, &c., approved March 12th, 1880. The notice that was filed did not comply with this supplement in that it failed to set forth the court in which it was proposed to enter such judgment. This was fatal to the notice.
The reasoning of Mr. Justice Kalisch’s opinion in ISTew v. Roggee, filed since the argument of this rule and not yet reported, makes this clear. That opinion also makes it clear that the supplement of 1907 places an additional burden upon the plaintiff in the enforcement of his bond and to that extent deprives him of the less burdensome remedy that existed for the enforcement of his contract at the time when it was made, which was in 1905, and hence prior to the date of the approval of the said supplement. The supplement of 1907 therefore did not affect the plaintiff’s remedy and hence no notice was necessary. Constitution of New Jersey, art. 4, sec. 7, ¶ 3; Bradley v. Lightcap, 195 U. S. 1; Walker v. Whitehead, 83 Id. 314; Wilkinson v. Rutherford, 49 N. J. L. 241; Morris v. Cotter, 46 Id. 260; Baldwin v. Flagg, 43 Id. 495; Rader v. Union, 36 Id. 273.
The rule to show cause is discharged.
