  • DATES of TRIALS Until October 1775, and Again from December 1816
    DATES OF TRIALS Until October 1775, and again from December 1816, the printed Proceedings provide both the start and the end dates of each sessions. Until the 1750s, both the Gentleman’s and (especially) the London Magazine scrupulously noted the end dates of sessions, dates of subsequent Recorder’s Reports, and days of execution. From December 1775 to October 1816, I have derived the end dates of each sessions from newspaper accounts of the trials. Trials at the Old Bailey usually began on a Wednesday. And, of course, no trials were held on Sundays. ***** NAMES & ALIASES I have silently corrected obvious misspellings in the Proceedings (as will be apparent to users who hyper-link through to the trial account at the OBPO), particularly where those misspellings are confirmed in supporting documents. I have also regularized spellings where there may be inconsistencies at different appearances points in the OBPO. In instances where I have made a more radical change in the convict’s name, I have provided a documentary reference to justify the more marked discrepancy between the name used here and that which appears in the Proceedings. ***** AGE The printed Proceedings almost invariably provide the age of each Old Bailey convict from December 1790 onwards. From 1791 onwards, the Home Office’s “Criminal Registers” for London and Middlesex (HO 26) do so as well. However, no volumes in this series exist for 1799 and 1800, and those for 1828-33 inclusive (HO 26/35-39) omit the ages of the convicts. I have not comprehensively compared the ages reported in HO 26 with those given in the Proceedings, and it is not impossible that there are discrepancies between the two.

  • TEMPORAL ASPECTS of the FINALITY of JUDGMENTS the SIGNIFICANCE of FEDERAL RULE 60(B) a Prime Function of Legal Systems Is the Settling of Controversies
    THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO LAW REVIEW and has punctured the illusions held by some 67 that the Webb law gave export associations a blanket exemption from the Sherman Act. Above all, however, the Alkasso case suggests the possibility that the exemption granted by the Webb Act may prove to be meaningless if the Act's provisos are properly enforced. TEMPORAL ASPECTS OF THE FINALITY OF JUDGMENTS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF FEDERAL RULE 60(b) A prime function of legal systems is the settling of controversies. Settling implies ending, and ending implies finality. Ordinarily, then, when final judg- ment is entered in a cause, all that remains is execution, the transmuting of law into force. But there is yet another prime function of law, and that is to do justice be- tween parties. judgment settles controversies; but the settlement may not necessarily be the most just. Common-sense notions of justice would seem to require that decisions be changed when they do not correspond with prevalent notions of right. The law has gradually been dvolving techniques to allow the victims of in- correct "final" judgments to secure relief in court. The process has been long and slow. The desire for absolute finality is strong, and satisfies both aesthetic and administrative needs. Techniques of appeal and rehearing allow correction of lower court misapplication of law. The development of techniques for work- ing substantial justice has been more difficult in cases where defects of fact rather than of law exist in the judgment, and the time for appeal or rehearing has passed. At common law a judgment could be set aside during the same term of court at which it was entered., Ordinarily, a judgment could not subsequently be set aside.

WHAT THE CRIMINAL LAW IS BUILT UPON Howard Newcomb Morse* Let us consider how certain doctrines of the Law of Crimes exist in other branches of the common law, sometimes under different no- menclature. The doctrine of merger applies to both Criminal Law and Family Law-the absorption of the attempt into the completed crime and the fiction of the unity of husband and wife. For example, the United States local common law majority rule holds that the misde- meanor no longer merges by operation of law into the felony or the lesser felony into the greater, but rather that the American public prosecutor enjoys an election in the matter. Only the attempt is con- solidated by operation of law into the completed crime. Also, the American local common law majority rule holds that the common law fiction of the unity of husband and wife remains in only certain aspects

STATE OF MARYLAND _____________________________________ Murphy, C.J. Moylan, Charles E., Jr. (retired, specially assigned) Thieme, Raymond G., Jr. (retired, specially assigned), JJ. _____________________________________ Opinion by Moylan, J. _____________________________________ Filed: November 30, 2001 The subject of this appeal is the Writ of Audita Querela. The pro se appellant, Barry Miles, attempts to mount a belated attack on a fourteen-year-old narcotics conviction by resuscitating that ancient common law writ that, even in its lifetime, was an exclusively civil remedy and, even in that limited capacity, was characterized by the Court of Appeals one hundred fifty years ago as having, "both in England and in this country, ... fallen almost entirely into disuse." Job v. Walker, 3 Md. 129, 132 (1852). In Maryland, indeed, it could not even qualify as falling into disuse, having never been used in the first place. "[W]e know of no instance in Maryland where it has ever been resorted to." Id. Nor has it "ever been [successfully] resorted to" in the one hundred forty-nine years since 1852. Measured from our birth as an independent state, therefore, the "fall into disuse" is now three times as irretrievably deep as it was in 1852.

MORGAN Respondent. _______________________________/ REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION TO DENY “AMENDED PETITION AND MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF EXTRAORDINARY WRIT PURSUANT TO 28 U.S.C. 1651(a)” I. Introduction This case comes before the court on petitioner’s Amended Petition and Memorandum in support of Extraordinary Writ Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a) (D/E #18), in which petitioner seeks to set aside a 1960 conviction for Unlawful Possession of Firearms. Petitioner seeks either a writ of audita querela or a writ of coram nobis. The government filed a response in opposition to the amended petition (D/E #23). For the reasons stated below, the court recommends that the amended petition (D/E #18) be DENIED and that this case be closed. II. Background In light of the fact that petitioner is attacking a conviction obtained in 1960, it is unsurprising that the factual background of this case is unclear.

  • Treason and Related Offenses in the Anglo
    TREASON AND RELATED OFFENSES IN THE ANGLO-SAXON DOOMS" T HAS long been the accepted practice to begin the I broader outline of British history with the Anglo-Saxon period, both in the textbooks and general histories. Although the treatment is frequently all too brief, this difficult epoch is dealt with competently in most of its major aspects de- spite the relative paucity of the sources.

Still the primary emphasis has been social, economic, or literary. There are significant studies on parliamentary origins, the beginning of feudalism, the village community, the class structure, and the transmission of the classical and Christian heritages.l But in legal history the field is narrowed down markedly save for a few most dis- tinguished contributions, despite the existence of a very con- siderable body of documentary sources of unusual richness and variety contained in the Anglo-Saxon Dooms.* The Anglo-Saxon Dooms represent a unique development in Geimanic legal history and are unlike the continental folklaws in many important respects, They are composed in the native tongue, Anglo-Saxon, for the most part, instead of in Vulgar Latin.
