By the Court,
Nelson, Ch. J.
It is true that a new warrant of attorney is necessary to the bringing of a scire facias to revive a judgment, 2 Tidd’s Pr. 983 ; 7 T. R. 337; Bing, on Ex. 126, n. (y;) 6 Johns. R. 108; but it is nevertheless for many purposes regarded as the continuation of the former suit. Ibid, and 2 Saund. 71, a, n. 4. Indeed, it is so decided in several cases ; 1 T. R. 388; 6 id. 282, 366. Upon a recognizance it is an original proceeding.

Tidd’s Pr. 983. The writ must be sued out of the same court where the judgment was given, if the record remain there; or if it has been removed, out of the court where the record *s Mr Tidd says, that when it is brought in the K. B. upon a judgment of an
inferior court, it must appear in the writ itself how the judgment came there, whether by
certiorari or
writ of error, because the execution is different: if by
certiorari, the
sci. fa. should show the particular limits of the inferior jurisdiction, and pray execution within those limits. Tidd’s Pr. 1007, 8. So intimately connected are the two proceedings, that an agreement in the former not to bring a writ of error operates to bar one in the latter. 1 T. R. 388. So the costs of a sci. fa.
after bankruptcy, to revive a judgment obtained
before bankruptcy, relate back to the original judgment, and are recoverable under the commission. 6 T. R. 282.
So the proceeding by
scire facias against
bail must be in the same court where the record in the original action remains ; and it was accordingly holders where a cause had been carried back from the K. B. by
procedendo to an
inferior court, where judgment was subsequently obtained and a
scire facias sued out against the bail, who thereupon removed the proceedings into the K. B. by
habeas corpus, that as the original cause had already been sent back, the other ought to follow it, and it was accordingly remanded. 6 T. R. 366.
All these principles and cases clearly indicate that the proceeding by scire facias to revive a judgment, should be had in the court where the record in the original action remains; that it is but the continuation of that suit—an incident—and must follow the original cause. It is not an action within the meaning of the term in the statute, which may be removed by certiorari. 2 R. S, 389, § 4.
Motion granted.
