Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Reports of Cases in the County Courts Included in Circuits Nos; 45& 46: Heard and Determined by Henry James Stonor, Esq., Judge of the Said Courts The object of this work is to prevent to the profession and the public, and especially to members of the Legislature, and others who may be interested in the reform of our legal tribunals, and procedure, a fair example of the onerous duties which have by continuous legislation, especially during the last eighteen years, been imposed upon the judges of County Courts, and likewise of the satisfactory manner in which those duties have been performed. These tribunals originally existed solely by virtue of the common law, and were, in the early period of the history of this country, "the great constitutional judicature in all questions of civil rights." (a) After retaining this proud position for several centuries, they gradually, from various causes which it is unnecessary here to specify, fell into almost complete desuetude, (b) until, in the year 1846, it was determined by the Legislature to revive them. "The County Court Act, 1846," was accordingly passed. This statute expressly provides (sect. 3) that "every court to be holden under this Act shall have all the jurisdiction and powers of the County Court for the recovery of debts and demands, as altered by this Act" and confers upon them a limited statutory jurisdiction providing, by sect. 58, that such jurisdiction should comprise all pleas of personal actions where the debt or damage claimed is not more than 20l., but should not extend to actions even indirectly affecting real property, nor to certain specified personal actions.
