Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Justices Act of 1886 (50 Victoriæ, No; 17): And the Offenders Probation Act of 1886 (50 Victoriæ, No; 14); With an Introduction, Notes, and Index Previous to the passage of the Justices Act the principal statutes in force in Queensland relating to the powers and authorities of Justices of the Peace were those known as "Jervis´s Acts" - 11 and 12 Vic. c. 42, 11 and 12 Vic. c. 43, and 11 and 12 Vic. c. 44 - together with the statute of New South Wales (14 Vic. No. 43) which adopted them, and the subsequent amendments of it (17 Vic. No. 39 and 37 Vic. No. 4). Some years ago Sir James Cockle, the late learned Chief Justice of Queensland, was induced before his departure from the Colony to undertake the task of consolidating and simplifying the language of these Acts, and under his direction a series of Bills was drawn for that purpose, each dealing with a separate branch of the law relating to Justices. The present Act is founded upon his work, but includes many important alterations in the law not contemplated by him. The framers of the Act have considered it more convenient to embody the whole law in one statute, and have adopted the more modern form in which Acts of Parliament are now drawn. After many revisions the Bill was first brought into the Legislative Council in September, 1885, and was most favourably received. It passed its various stages with no material alterations and was transmitted to the Legislative Assembly, but owing to the pressure of business and the lateness of the session did not then become law. During the recess it was again carefully revised and underwent some slight modifications in form. It was presented to the Assembly on the 15th of July, 1886, and having passed both Houses was assented to on the 13th of October.
