The Scale of Charges for Advertisements will in future be the bar, or even of the juniors of the inner bar, getting as follows:

[blocks in formation]

THE resolution adopted by the gentlemen practising within the bar in Chancery, to confine themselves each to one Court and the Court of Appeal, (including, of course, the House of Lords and the Privy Council), is most satisfactory, and will, we trust, work as well for the honour, comfort, and otherwise for the advantage of those learned persons, as it undoubtedly will for the convenience of the suitor, and that generally ignored body of men called "the outer bar." It renders, however, more necessary than ever the adoption of a rule for which we long ago contended, for having, on the day appointed for motions, a paper of motions in the Courts of the Master of the Rolls and the ViceChancellors, as well as in the Appeal Courts; because, now that each Court will have its permanent inner bar, VOL. XVIII. C

their opposed motions heard. The difference between a list and the existing system is plain enough. When motions are made according to seniority, every counsel within the bar having a right to make two motions, it follows in theory, and it has been found to follow in practice, whenever there has been a fixed Bar, that no more than two, or, at the most, three, of the leading counsel can be heard on a seal, to move. The seal being concluded, the right to move according to seniority is again acted upon at the next seal. First, the old motions are moved; next, those for which briefs have been delivered in the interval, and so on; so that the chance of moving an opposed motion, may not come to the outer bar for six or seven seals running; and in actual practice that has repeatedly and continually occurred. Now, we are not meaning to suggest that any rule ought to be adopted intended or tending to transfer business from the inner to the outer bar. We have, as we believe most junior counsel in actual practice have, an unfeigned respect for the inner bar-an unfeigned desire that its status, and all its rational privileges, should be maintained-looking upon it, as we all do, as the body that guards and represents the honour and interests of the whole Bar. But then, on the other hand, we have also some reverence for the ghts of the suitor, and we conceive that no rule ought to interfere with

Correspondence.

THE attention of the Editor of THE JURIST is drawn

to the report of a case in the Legal Observer of the 14th January, under the title, In re Clerks of Records and Writs Oaths in Chancery Act, where it is stated to have been held by the Lord Chancellor, "that a London Com

his most sacred and unquestioned right to choose his counsel; and though in general he will be advised, and rightly advised, to intrust important motions to leading counsel, and to the most eminent amongst them, yet there are cases under which it may be prudent for him, and at any rate he has always a right, if it so please him, to confide a motion to younger and more obscure silk gownsmen, or even to juniors; but if he is to be told that when-missioner to administer oaths in Chancery, under the ever, from economy, or caprice, or from any other motive, with which no mortal has anything whatever to do, he chooses to adopt the latter course, he wait from what in America is termed July to eternity before his unfortunate counsel can get a hearing, practically his boasted freedom of choice is arbitrarily and compulsorily interfered with. The notion of his being at liberty to select his own counsel is mythical-a pure abstraction. But this is not all; he is not merely mulcted in delay-he is heavily mulcted in costs. True, he does not refresh his counsel by supplemental fees; but his solicitor, who is bound to attend on every day of motions till the motion is made, because on any such day it may be made, is fairly entitled to make, and always does make, a charge for attendance; and thus the unhappy suitor pays frequently more for his solicitor waiting day after day, when the motion is not made, than would have secured the advocacy of the first advocate. Now, a list of motions would, so far as is practicable, remedy all this, because then no one would be bound to attend unless a motion was in the paper; and every motion being disposed of in its order, within a reasonable time every suitor would get his motion heard, whether he aspired to the dignity of being heard from the very centre of the inner bar, or modestly confined himself to the brightest wig and the blackest gown of the third row.

Something, we believe, has been said from time to time, on this subject, about some supposed privilege of the inner bar, of moving by seniority, by virtue of their patents as counsel to the Crown.

This question we would investigate as a question of legal right, if it were worth while to do so. But it scarcely can be worth while to discuss whether it ever had existence, when the privilege, if ever it did exist, has been so long virtually abandoned by the inner bar, by their acquiescence in a paper of motions in the Appeal Court. If there was anything in it, it must apply as well in that Court as in the Courts below. Indeed, as an ancient privilege, it could not have existed in the Vice-Chancellors' Courts; and in aid of this argument, it will be recollected, that motions in the subordinate Courts, at least in the Vice-Chancellors' Courts, are technically and strictly coram the Lord Chancellor, who hears them by his Vice-Chancellors; who makes, that is, signs and gives force to, the orders; who may, whenever he chooses, hear them originally; and who, when there is what is commonly called an "appeal," does not, in strictness, hear an appeal from a judge of substantively original jurisdiction, but rehears what he is supposed himself to have heard before. So that the privilege, if it had any existence, was a privilege in the Chancellor's Court, in which it has been long abolished.

On every ground, then, of right in the suitor, of absence of any antagonistic right in the inner bar, and of convenience and economy in the dispatch of business, we repeat, let it be pressed by the Profession on the attention of the judges of the Court of Chancery, that there should be a regular paper of motions, as well as of causes and petitions.

16 & 17 Vict. c. 78, is empowered to administer the oath at the residence of the deponent, or elsewhere within ten miles of Lincoln's Inn Hall, and is not limited to his place of business*." The terms in which the Lord Chancellor delivered his opinion on the case, which was stated ex parte, are not given in this report. His Lordship said " that his attention had been previously called to the point out of court, and he had come to the opinion, not without doubt, that the act did not restrict the commissioners to administer oaths at their respective places of business; and this opinion was strengthened by an observation made to him by Lord Justice Turner, (who was on the bench), that it was clear that the act was not intended so to restrict them, for by the 7th section the commissioners were empowered to administer oaths in the county palatine of Lancaster."" The learned Lord Justice must have read this 7th section hastily, for it does not bear the construction thus put upon it. It merely empowers the commissioners to administer oaths for all suits and matters whatsoever in the Chancery of the county palatine of Lancaster." The Lord Chancellor, in giving his opinion as above, stated the limit of the London Commissioners' jurisdiction to be within ten miles of Lincoln's Inn Hall. Now, the words in the 2nd section, "within ten miles from Lincoln's Inn Hall," are merely words of qualification for the office of London Commissioner; and unless the words "at their respective places of business" are read as limiting the The words "at their respective places of business," jurisdiction, there are no words in the act which do so. being read as antecedent to the words "to administer," may not be strictly grammatical; but where is perfect grammar to be looked for in acts of Parliament? They

*The 1st, 2nd, and 7th sections of the act are as follow:Sect. 1. "The persons now styled Masters Extraordinary in Chancery' shall cease to be so styled, and they, and all persons hereafter appointed by the Lord Chancellor to execute like duties in England, shall be designated Commissioners to administer Oaths in Chancery in England,' and shall possess and exercise all such powers and discharge all such duties as now appertain to the office of Master Extraordinary in Chancery by virtue of any statute or order of the Court of Chancery or of the Lord Chancellor, or usage in that behalf, or other

wise."

Sect. 2. "It shall be lawful for the Lord Chancellor from

time to time to appoint any persons practising as solicitors within ten miles from Lincoln's Inn Hall, at their respective places of business, to administer oaths and take declarations, affirmations, and attestations of honour in Chancery, and to possess all such other powers and discharge all such other duties as aforesaid; and such persons shall be styled 'London Commissioners to administer Oaths in Chancery:' and they shall be entitled to charge and take a fee of 1s. 6d. for every oath administered by them, and for every declaration, affirmation, or attestation of honour taken by them, subject to any order of the Lord Chancellor varying or annulling the same."

[ocr errors]

Sect. 7. "That where any person is or shall be authorised to administer oaths for the High Court of Chancery, such is and shall be authorised to administer oaths for all suits and matters whatsoever in the Chancery of the county palatine of Lancaster; and where any plea, answer, affidavit, or other document whatsoever is or shall be receivable in evidence in the High Court of Chancery, the same shall be in like manner receivable in the said court of the county palatine."

[graphic]

are, at all events, sense. On the contrary, reading the words as part of the qualification for the office, they are not merely surplusage, but wholly without meaning. If, as thrown out by the Lord Chancellor, there is the least doubt on the subject, it ought to be set at rest by a declaratory act; for in the event-not an unlikely one-of an indictment for perjury, or any other criminal offence, founded on an answer or affidavit sworn before one of the London Commissioners elsewhere than at his place of business, surely the defendant would get the benefit of any such doubt.

[We have not any report of the case referred to by our correspondent. If reported as stated by him, it must certainly be incorrectly reported, as it is quite impossible that the Lord Chancellor and Lord Justice Turner can have said concurrently the two things imputed to them. The Lord Chancellor may by possibility have held that the 2nd section was to be read, that persons "practising within ten miles of Lincoln's Inn Hall, at their respective places of business," may be appointed to administer oaths, without limit as to the locality in which they are to administer the oaths, though we can hardly think that his Lordship did so hold; but if he did state that opinion, then Lord Justice Turner's alleged construction of the 7th section would have been at least consistent with it. But if the Lord Chancellor held that the commissioner, though not limited to his own place of business, is limited to ten miles from Lincoln's Inn Hall, then Lord Justice Turner's alleged construction of the 7th section would be in direct opposition to, instead of supporting, the Lord Chancellor's opinion.

IN CHANCERY.

17 Vict. c. 78, intituled "An Act relating to the ApThe Lord Chancellor, under the powers of the 16 & pointment of Persons to administer Oaths in Chancery, and to Affidavits made for Purposes connected with Registration," has appointed the following gentlemen to be Commissioners for administering Oaths in Chan

cery:

George Frederick Abrahams, 6, Great Marlboroughstreet, and 1, Fortess-terrace, Kentish-town, to be a London Commissioner.

We confess we greatly doubt either of the learned COMMISSIONERS TO ADMINISTER OATHS judges having given the opinion attributed to him, as it seems scarcely possible to doubt, that, as suggested by our correspondent, the construction of the 2nd section is, that the persons to be appointed must be solicitors practising within ten miles of Lincoln's Inn Hall, that being their qualification for appointment as London Commissioners, and that they are to administer oaths at their respective places of business, which of course would be within the ten miles. If read as appointing persons practising as solicitors within ten miles from Lincoln's Inn Hall, at their places of business, the observation immediately occurs, how can persons practise as solicitors except at their places of business?-and that if so read, then clearly there is no limit to their authority in point of locality, which would be quite inconsistent with the distinction between them as "London Commissioners" and the commissioners of the 1st section, who are only the country Masters Extraordinary with new faces. As to the 7th section, it is quite clear that all it means to do is to give to any person, who has authority to administer oaths for the Court of Chancery, the like power to administer them for the business of the Lancaster Court-not necessarily in Lancashire, but wherever the particular commissioner might administer oaths for the Court of Chancery; and so we are confident it will be decided if the point should ever come to be heard on argument.-ED.]
