¶1This is an action of assumpsit for the use and occupation1 of certain premises belonging to the plaintiff. It can only be maintained by proof of a promise express or implied.
¶2It appears that the plaintiff, on Jan. 24, 1863, brought a writ of entry against the defendant for the lot in question, upon which judgment was rendered in his favor at the October term of the Supreme Judicial Court, 1864, and a writ of possession issued thereon the first day of November following. It does not appear that the writ of possession has ever been served, that the plaintiff has entered on the demanded premises, or that, since the judgment, the defendant has ever pi’omised payment.
¶3The writ embraces a claim for rent accruing prior and subsequent to the date of the writ of entry.
¶4The plaintiff might have recovered in his writ of entry the rents and profits up to the date of his writ, had he seen fit so to declare.
¶5As the plaintiff elected to consider the defendant a disseizor and recovered judgment against him as such, we must so regard him. The relation of a disseizor negatives that of landlord and tenant. The plaintiff has never entered under his writ of possession. There is no express promise proved since the date of the writ of entry. The facts negative an implied one. The plaintiff should have inserted in his writ, of entry a claim for mesne profits, accruing before its date, and for those, arising since an action of trespass *580for mesne profits is the appropriate remedy after possession has been regained.
