Excerpt from The Public Statute Laws of the State of Connecticut: As Revised and Enacted by the General Assembly, in May 1821; To Which Are Prefixed, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States, and the Constitution of Connecticut

Instead Of following the practice of their native country, in the complicated mode of civil process, and the endless labyrinth of forms in legal proceedings, they adopted a concise and plain mode of bringing the parties before the court; and they proceeded in the trial Of the cause without circuity or delay, and with a facility and dispatch, that greatly contributed to promote the ends of justice. Instead of volumes to detail the practice of the several courts, a few pages are sufficient for that purpose and the merits of the cause are brought to view, on the trial, with as much clearness, certainty and fairness, as where the most complicated forms of the common law are made use of.
