In these cases, the writ would command the person to answer the charges laid out in the suit, or else judgment may be made against them in their absence).

Lunatic
Persons. One who has had an understanding, but who, by disease, grief, or other accident, has lost the use of his reason. A lunatic is properly one who has had lucid intervals, sometimes enjoying his senses, and sometimes not.
