Plaintiffs are legal or equitable .
The legal plaintiff is he in whom the legal title or cause of action is vested .
The equitable plaintiff is he who ,
not having the legal title ,
yet ,
is in equity entitled to the thing sued for ;
for example ,
when a suit is brought by Benjamin Franklin for the use of Robert Morris ,
Benjamin Franklin is the legal ,
and Robert Morris the equitable plaintiff .
This is the usual manner of bringing suit ,
when the cause of action is not assignable at law ,
but is so in equity .
