Reports of cases before the High Court of Justiciary in Scotland (during x period): ed. by Edwin Adam, V.1-7, 1893-1916, Edinburgh. T. & T. Clark,
1895-1919, all published. (The High Court of Justiciary handles all criminal matters in Scotland, while the Session Court is relegated to civil matters.
The latter court does not hear appeals in criminal cases, but that distinction is somewhat nominal, since today the same fifteen judges who sit in
Scotland’s supreme civil court are concurrently Commissioners of Justiciary, so that they sit as the judges in the separate supreme criminal court, the
Justiciary Court.)
