It was chaired by the Lord Chancellor and all the judges of the Supreme Court were members. The Council continued to function until 1981. At that time a new Judges’ Council was set up chaired by the Lord Chief Justice with a smaller membership of the more senior judges. In 2002 the Council adopted a written Constitution and has subsequently widened its membership to include representatives from all ranks of the Brief history judiciary, including the Supreme Court, the Court of Appeal, the High Court, the Circuit and District Benches, the Magistracy and the Tribunals. In March, 2006 the Council further revised its Constitution and membership following the coming into effect of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005. This Act and the Concordat of 26th January 2006 between the Lord Chancellor and Lord Chief Justice vest in the latter very considerable responsibilities in respect of the judiciary and of the business of the Courts of England and Wales. The Lord Chief Justice exercises these responsibilities through the Judges’ Council and the Judicial Executive Board. It has no constitutional status but is protected by legislation in the Constitutional or legal form of the Judicature Act 1873 and the Constitutional Reform Act status/basis 2005.

  • A Veritable Revolution: the Court of Criminal Appeal in English
    A VERITABLE REVOLUTION: THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEAL IN ENGLISH CRIMINAL HISTORY 1908-1958 A THESIS IN History Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF ARTS by CECILE ARDEN PHILLIPS B.A. University of Missouri-Kansas City, 1986 Kansas City, Missouri 2012 © 2012 CECILE ARDEN PHILLIPS ALL RIGHTS RESERVED A VERITABLE REVOLUTION: THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEAL IN ENGLISH CRIMINAL HISTORY 1908-1958 Cecile Arden Phillips, Candidate for the Masters of Arts Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2012 ABSTRACT In a historic speech to the House of Commons on April 17, 1907, British Attorney General, John Lawson Walton, proposed the formation of what was to be the first court of criminal appeal in English history. Such a court had been debated, but ultimately rejected, by successive governments for over half a century. In each debate, members of the judiciary declared that a court for appeals in criminal cases held the potential of destroying the world-respected English judicial system. The 1907 debates were no less contentious, but the newly elected Liberal government saw social reform, including judicial reform, as their highest priority. After much compromise and some of the most overwrought speeches in the history of Parliament, the Court of Criminal Appeal was created in August 1907 and began hearing cases in May 1908. A Veritable Revolution is a social history of the Court’s first fifty years. There is no doubt, that John Walton and the other founders of the Court of Criminal Appeal intended it to provide protection from the miscarriage of justice for English citizens convicted of criminal offenses.

Savannah Shipman, M.A. Western Michigan University, 2016 It has often been assumed that medieval women, noble or common, had little or no agency, were forced into submissive roles by dominating men, and had little control over their day-to-day lives. Theoretical statements about law served to support these assumptions as they forbade women from prosecuting men for any crimes other than the murder of her husband or for rape.

    EXHIBITION GUIDE: ARTWORKS PLEASE RETURN TO HOLDER WHEN YOU HAVE FINISHED Gallery 13 Hall Gallery 13 (artworks left to right) Gallery 12 (artworks left to right) LEO BROE b. Dublin 1899 – d. 1966 PATRICK PEARSE 1932 Marble, 46 x 41 x 10.5 cm Presented by Aonac na Nodlag for Thomas Kelly T.C., T.D., 1933. Collection Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane. Reg. 701 Like Patrick Pearse (1879-1916), Leo Broe was a member of the Irish Volunteers which was formed in 1913. Much of his oeuvre consists of ecclesiastical work and monuments to Irish republicans which are located throughout the country. Patrick Pearse’s father James was a sculptor who had come to Ireland from England to work. Pearse studied law and while called to the Bar, never practiced. He was deeply interested in the Irish language and became the editor of An Claidheamh Soluis (The Sword of Light), the newspaper of The Gaelic League. While initially a cultural nationalist, Pearse’s views became increasingly more inclined towards physical force republicanism and social revolution. The 1913 Lockout had a significant impact on his thinking and Pearse wrote an economic critique of British rule, citing the high rent paid by those living in dire tenement conditions in Dublin in contrast to those living in cities in Britain. In this he found common ground with James Connolly who three years later, on 24 April 1916, was Commandant of the Dublin Brigade during the Easter Rising. Of the Lockout and the role of James Larkin, Patrick Pearse said: ‘I do not know whether the methods of Mr James Larkin are wise methods or unwise methods (unwise, I think, in some respects), but this I know, that here is a most hideous wrong to be righted, and that the man who attempts honestly to right it is a good man and a brave man.’ GALLERY 13 ELIZABETH MAGILL b.
