ment as he may, upon any admissions of fact in the pleadings
or other written admissions in the case, be entitled to without
waiting for the determination of any other question between
the parties. Such application may be made by motion or peti-
tion so soon as the right of the party applying to the relief

such application, give such relief, subject to such terms, if any,
as such court may think fit, and such order or judgment shall,
