special rule of court

special rule of court
An order of court adopting a rule of practice or a method of procedure in the particular cause before the court, as a departure from the usual practice or procedure. "If under the stipulation, the judge was to abdicate for a time, and proceed, as an arbitrator, to hear and decide the facts and the law, and upon such findings was again to proceed as a court to pronounce judgment, this was an adoption of that method of trying the cause. The submission was thus made a special rule of court, and was not revocable." Hastings v Jones (CA7 Ill) 18 F2d 833.
