MISE, English law. In a writ of right which is intended to be tried by the 
grand assize, the general issue is called the mise. Lawes, Civ. Pl. 111; 7 
Cowen, 51. This word also signifies expenses, and it is so commonly used in 
the entries of judgments in personal actions; as when the plaintiff 
recovers, the judgment is quod recuperet damna sua for such value, and pro 
mises et custagiis for costs and charges for so much, &c.
