In this paper, we treat the problem of determining the rate of growth of meromorphic functions on the plane, which are solutions of nth order algebraic differential equations whose coefficients are arbitrary entire functions (i.e., equations of the form, Ω(z,y,dy/dz, • • •, dny/dzn) — 0, where Ω is a polynomial in y, dy/dz, • • •, dny/dzn whose coefficients are arbitrary entire functions of z.)
