county. At the request of the presiding justice of any judicial

department, the presiding justice of any of the other departments of the

state may consent to the assignment from among the trial justices of any

judicial district in his department, of such justices as in his opinion

may be spared from said district, without prejudice to the work or

interests of such district, to hold trial or special terms in the

department from whence the request may come.

No consent shall be given hereunder to the assignment of a justice or

justices from any district that will not leave at all times at least two

trial justices in such district; and no allowance given by any statute

for services, or expenses, rendered, or incurred by any trial justice

for sitting in the first or second departments shall be paid, unless
