Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Early Records of Ontario: Being Extracts From the Records of the Court of Quarter Sessions for the District of Mecklenburgh (Afterwards the Midland District) Immediately after the Conquest, Commissioners or Justices of the Peace, among other officers of the law, were appointed in the Province of Quebec and various ordinances were passed by the provisional government. But the Quebec Act of 1774 entirely abolished both the political and judicial system of the colony, and repealed "all and every ordinance and ordinances made by the Governor and Council of Quebec for the time being, relative to the civil government and administration of justice in the said Province and all commissions to Judges and other officers thereof." After the passing of the Quebec Act, therefore, the Governor and Council provided for by it began with a clean sheet, as far as the machinery for carrying on the government and administering justice was concerned. During the years 1775 and 1776 the very existence of the colony as a British possession being threatened, provision for its civil administration could not be thought of. But, with restored security in 1777, the Governor and Council began to pass laws in the shape of ordinances. The first one was very naturally "An Ordinance for establishing Courts of Civil Judicature in the Province of Quebec;" the second, "An Ordinance to regulate the proceedings in the Courts of Civil Judicature in the Province of Quebec," and the fifth, "An Ordinance for establishing Courts of Criminal Jurisdiction in the Province of Quebec."
