Per Curiam.

As the judgment was contemporaneous with the discharge under the insolvent act, the defendant had no opportunity to plead his discharge. (2 Caines, 380. 1 Johns. Cases, 133.) He might have sought relief by an audita querela; but it is usual to grant the same relief on motion, and the rule of the court below was properly granted. The motion must be denied.

Rule refused.
