¶1delivering the opinion of the court:
¶2The defendant below pleaded non assumpsit, payment, former recovery, set-off and statute of limitations.
¶3On March fourth the plaintiff below declined to reply to any of said pleas until each óf such pleas is drawn out. On May fourth *117counsel for defendant below withdrew all his pleas excepting the plea of non assumpsit and moved for judgment against the plaintiff below for his failure to file a replication to that plea.
¶4It is contended by counsel for defendant below that the plea of non assumpsit is the general issue, that it would be of no assistance- to the plaintiff below to have it drawn out, and that therefore the plaintiff having failed to file a replication to that plea, as required by the rule, the defendant below is entitled to judgment for want of such replication to that plea. We think judgment should be so entered.
¶5This question is treated fully in Woolley on Delaware Practice Sections 480 and 481. We quote one paragraph:
“When the plaintiff is ruled to file his replications to the defendant's pleas, even though they are all memoranda, he cannot ignore them, for then judgment would be taken against him for want of a replication, but he should plead to those which for his information need not be drawn out, and order the others drawn out before he pleads.”
¶6Let judgment in favor of defendant below for want of a plea be entered.
