Appeal and ebbob, \u00a7 1313 \u2014when presumed that court properly advanced cause for hearing. Where, in an action on promissory notes, on defendant\u2019s motion to vacate a judgment by confession entered against him, leave is given to plead, the judgment being allowed to stand as security, and defendant files the plea of general issue and a special plea that the notes were given without consideration, and pursuant to the showing made by plaintiff\u2019s affidavit the case is placed on the short-cause calendar, but, on defendant\u2019s motion to strike because the cause was not at issue, leave is given plaintiff to file a replication instanter, the case is stricken from the short-cause calendar and advanced, over defendant\u2019s objection, to the head of the trial calendar and set for immediate hearing, the act of the trial court in so advancing the cause is not an abuse of discretion which, in the absence of a showing that defendant\u2019s rights were prejudiced,\" constitutes reversible error, but, it will be presumed, in the absence of such a showing, that the court so acted for good and sufficient reason.\nAppeal from the Circuit Court of Cook county; the Hon.
