PROCEDENDO, practice. A writ which issues where an action is removed from an 
inferior to a superior jurisdiction by habeas corpus, certiorari or writ of 
privilege, and it does not appear to such superior court that the suggestion 
upon which the cause has been removed, is sufficiently proved; in which case 
the superior court by this writ remits the cause to the court from whence it 
came, commanding the inferior court to proceed to the final hearing and 
determination of the same. See 1 Chit. R. 575; 2 Bl. R. 1060 1 Str. R. 527;
