Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856):
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;
