Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report of the Cases of Regina V. Millis Et Regina V. Carroll: In the Queens Bench in Ireland, in Easter and Trinity Terms, 1842
Tm: following Cases were reported by the direction of the attorney-general, in order that, in the event of their coming before the House of Lords, their Lordships might be informed of the proceedings in the Court below; the Reporter has therefore deemed it necessary, and was so instructed, to report at length the arguments of the several Counsel who were heard in those Cases. Owing to the absence, through illness, of the Lord Chief Justice, during the argument of the Case of Regina v. Millis, in Easter Term, the Court considered it necessary to have the Case of Regina 0. Carroll (involving the same question, ) fully argued in Trinity Term, and consequently many portions of the arguments of the Counsel in the latter Case were repeti tions of some of those advanced in the former, but which the Reporter did not think himself at liberty, according to his instructions, either to omit, or materially curtail. Many of the authorities referred to by the Court and Counsel in these Cases, are contained in books not easily attainable; the Reporter has therefore deemed it requisite to set out most of the references fully and at length. Owing. To the hurried manner in which the following Report was unavoidably printed, in order to be in time for the hearing of the Cases in the House of Lords, the Reporter had little more than a fortnight to compare the references, make up his Re port, and correct the press. He therefore fears that some verbal errors may have been allowed to remain uncorrected if any. Such be found in this Report, it is hoped that the foregoing circumstances will procure the Reporter indulgence.
