H. J. Wilhelm v. South Indian River Company

Wilhelm brought an action for damages alleging malicious prosecution. Defendants appeared and thereafter, on the rule day
in September, 1925, default was regularly entered against them for want of plea or demurrer, and thus the case stood on September
15, 1927, when an attorney, not of record, on behalf of plaintiff filed with the clerk praecipe to have the case docketed
for October term and also a notice that the case was at issue and ready for trial.
