INTRODUCTION Prior articles have asserted that English criminal law is very fragmented and that a considerable amount of the older law - especially the common law - is badly out of date.1 The purpose of this article is to consider the crime of public nuisance (also called common nuisance), a common law crime. The word 'nuisance' derives from the old french 'nuisance' or 'nusance' 2 and the latin, nocumentum.3 The basic meaning of the word is that of 'annoyance';4 In medieval English, the word 'common' comes from the word 'commune' which, itself, derives from the latin 'communa' - being a commonality, a group of people, a corporation.5 In 1191, the City of London (the 'City') became a commune. Thereafter, it is usual to find references with that term - such as common carrier, common highway, common council, common scold, common prostitute etc;6 The reference to 'common' designated things available to the general public as opposed to the individual. For example, the common carrier, common farrier and common innkeeper exercised a public employment and not just a private one.

The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada DE-6 (2/88) Abstract This thesis is a cross-disciplinary study of legal history and customary law. Respect for, and accommodation of local customary law has been a constant and integral feature of law in Britain since Anglo-Saxon times. It guided the emergence of the common law, and continues as a rule of law to the present day. Such respect and accommodation was an essential principle that permitted the peaceful consolidation of the British realms from its constituent parts. Continuity of law is a legal presumption whether territories have been added by conquest, cession or annexation.

  • Procedural Aspects of Early Criminal Law
    PROCEDURAL ASPECTS OF EARLY CRIMINAL LAW MICHAEL E. PHELPS* The title reads "Criminal Law", but it is important to establish from the outset that we take that phrase in its modern meaning. Early law made no conceptual distinction between dif- ferent branches of law, but was based on the notion of wrongs for which some form of legal redress was available. Initially there was no such thing as a court restricting itself to inherently criminal matters. As an example, although the Court of Com- mon Pleas was established to deal primarily with private pleas, the Crown often stepped in to exact punitive fines, that is "amer- 1976 CanLIIDocs 38 cement". It is from this undifferentiated notion of "wrongs" that the current distinctions between criminal and civil law have been made. The rise of the modern trial system, with its reliance on the proof of facts, has forced the creation of those precise definitions on the basis of which the distinction has been made. Even today the dividing line between tort and crime is a ne- bulous one. In fact it is so nebulous that all but the bravest simply state that a crime is a wrong which is redressed by the state, acting in its capacity as the state, while tort remains in private hands. This unexplained dichotomy has been with us for some time. The opening words of the Glanvil treatise state that some pleas are criminal and some are civil.1 Indeed this could have been said many years earlier. In Anglo-Saxon times, however, society was merely content to recognize that a wrong was a threat to good order.

  • The 1259 Pipe Roll
    The 1259 Pipe Roll Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London by Richard Cassidy King’s College London 2012 2 Abstract The 1259 pipe roll contains accounts for most of the counties of England, covering the first full year of government by the reforming council set up by the baronial coup of 1258. The transcript of the roll makes up the bulk of this thesis. An unusually wide range of financial records, also mostly unpublished, survives from the years around 1259. These records are used together with the pipe roll to describe government finances and to show that the machinery of government continued to function successfully in the early years of the reform period. The thesis begins with a description of the editorial conventions used, and a discussion of the value of such transcripts. The financial information contained in the roll is extracted and analysed, to show the sources of government revenue, and how it was spent in the counties. The relationship between the central government and the sheriffs who administered the counties was changed radically in 1258, with the new sheriffs appointed by the reforming council as custodians, who were to account for the traditional income from the counties. These sheriffs’ accounts provide information about the customary payments and local courts in the counties which is not usually available. The income produced by the sheriffs and by the manors of the royal demesne over the period from 1241 to 1259 is compared, to show how the sheriffs squeezed additional revenue from the counties in the 1250s, and how the demesne continued to make a significant contribution to royal resources.

  • The Role of Costs and Inherent Judicial Authority
    CONTROLLING PROCEDURAL ABUSES: THE ROLE OF COSTS AND INHERENT JUDICIAL AUTHORITY Neil Gold* I. THE SHAPE OF THE PROBLEM It has often been suggested that the litigation process resembles war- fare.' Much of the blame is traditionally shouldered by the adversary system, 2 but whatever the cause, advocates do comport themselves mili- taristically, seeking logistic or strategic advantage over their rivals. Most law suits have only one winner and lawyers naturally strive to succeed.' However, short of winning outright, other successes motivate lawyers and benefit clients. For example, instituting a law suit may drive a defendant to agree to an unwarranted settlement in favour of the plaintiff, if only to avoid the legal system and bad publicity. Defendants similarly will seek delays in order to diminish the plaintiffs zeal and, of course, to delay judg- ment day with little or no penalty. ' In the result, procedural manoeuvres may be made by either party to secure undeserved gains. While only the fertile imagination of the advocate delimits the pos- sibilities for gamesmanship, the following short list is illustrative: 1. Frivolous or vexatious proceedings brought for relief on the basis of facts already proved to be non-existent or the contrary to those pleaded. 2. Substantively inadequate proceedings brought to obtain relief * Associate Professor, Faculty of Law, University of Victoria. 1 "Litigation resembles warfare. Opposing counsel are charged with the re- sponsibility of so conducting their campaign that ultimate victory will result." Cited in J. FRANK, COURTS ON TRIAL: MYTH AND REALITY IN AMERICAN JURISPRUDENCE 8 (1949), quoting Leonard Moore, author of a handbook published in 1946 under the auspices of the American Bar Association.
