Syllabus

<p>Equity — Equity rules — Equity practice.</p> <p>The trial of cases in equity is regulated by rules promulgated by the Supreme Court, which have the force of a statute. They cannot be suspended by the court of common pleas, nor can that court adopt others inconsistent therewith. They are the rules of all the courts to be enforced in all of them, and not relaxed or disregarded as matter of mere indulgence or convenience.</p> <p>Where a court of equity enters a decree with knowledge that exceptions have been filed to the findings of fact and conclusions of law, and without hearing argument thereon, and in spite of the specific objection that a decree could not be made until after a hearing upon the exceptions, the appellate court will consider the decree as final, and will not quash the appeal from it.</p>
