House. Judiciary Comm. Report on Superior and County courts, 1852
|
|
1852 Report of the House Committee on the Judiciary regarding a bill to abolish jury trials in County courts and other administrative matters. An amended proposal was attached for the House's consideration. The bill divided the state into nine judicial circuits, and three judicial districts. The Superior Courts were given sole original jurisdiction of pleas, and thereafter no civil or criminal cases that required a jury be filed in the Courts of Pleas and Quarter Sessions. Also included were other administrative and procedural changes regarding the court system. Of note, it is unclear from this bill which sections were amendments and which were the original.
