For example, the action of quare impedit is local, inasmuch as the benefice,in the right of presentation to which the plaintiff complains of beingobstructed, is so. 7 Co. 3 a; 1 Chit. Pl. 271; Com. Dig. Actions, N 4.Within this class of cases are also many actions in which only pecuniarydamages are recoverable. Such are the common law action of waste, andtrespass quare clausum fregit; as likewise trespass on the case for injuriesaffecting things real, as for nuisances to houses or lands; disturbance ofrights of way or of common; obstruction or diversion of ancient watercourses, &c. 1 Chit. Pl. 271; Gould on Pl. ch. 3, Sec. 105, 106, 107. Theaction of replevin, also, though it lies for damages only, and does notarise out of the violation of any local right, is nevertheless local. 1Saund. 347, n. 1. The reason of its locality appears to be the necessity ofgiving a local description of the taking complained of. Gould on Pl. ch. 3,Sec. 111. A scire facias upon a record, (which is an action, 2 Term Rep.46,) although to some intents, a continuation of the original suit, 1 TermRep. 388, is also local.

Actions, N 12; 1 Chit.Pl. 273; because actions of this class are, in most instances, founded onthe violation of rights which, in contemplation of law, have no locality. 1Saund. 241, b, note 6. And it will be found true, as a general position,that actions ex delicto, in which a mere personalty is recoverable, are, bythe common law, transitory; except when founded upon, or arising out of somelocal subject. Gould on Pl. ch. 3, Sec. 112. The venue in a transitoryaction may be laid in any county which the plaintiff may prefer. Bac. Abr.Actions Local, &c. A. (a.)

It is a right which a person has in a thing, follows thething, and may be instituted against him who possesses it; and this whetherthe thing be movable or immovable and, in the sense of the common law,whether the thing be real or personal. See Domat, Supp. des Lois Civiles,Liv. 4, tit. 1, n. 5; Pothier, Introd. Generales aux Coutumes 110; Ersk. Pr.Scot. Law, B. 4, t. 1, Sec. 2.

The former are those whichare instituted to compel the payment or to do some other thing purely civilthe latter are those by which the plaintiff asks the reparation of a tort orinjury which he or those who belong to him have sustained. Sometimes thesetwo kinds of actions are united when they assume the name of mixed personalactions. Domat, Supp. des Lois Civiles, Liv. 4, tit. 1, n. 4; 1 Brown's Civ.Law, 440.
