(Norman Fr. thus, so). In pleading. A term formerly used to introduce a statement that special matter already pleaded amounts to a denial. In actions founded on deeds, the defendant may, instead of pleading non est factum in the common form, allege any special matter which admits the execution of the writing in question, but which, nevertheless, shows that it is not in law his deed, and may conclude with, “and so it is not his deed,” as, that the writing was delivered to A. B. as an escrow, to be delivered over on certain conditions, which have not been complied with, “and so it is not his act”; or that, at tiie time of making the writing the defendant was a feme covert, “and so it is not her act.” Bac. Abr. “Pleas” (H 3), (I 2) ; Gould, PI. c. 6, pt. 1, § 64. An example of this form of plea, which is sometimes called the “special general issue,” occurs in 4 Rawle (Pa.) 83, 84.
