The following Acts were promulgated in the customary manner, Deemster Gall reading sum- maries of the Acts in English, and the Coroner of Glanfaba (Mr W. Kermode) translating them into the Manx language :— The Port Erin and Port St. Mary Light Act., 1898. The St. Matthew's (Douglas) Church Aot, 1898. The Bishop Barrow's Charity (Girls' High School) Act, 1898. The Education Act, 1898. The Merchandise Marks Aot, 1898. The Licensing Act, 1898. The Douglas Market Act, 1898. --- FOOTPATHS IN ARBORY AND MALEW. Mr Quine asked the Receiver-General, as Chair man of the Highway Board, the following questions : - 1. The length of footpath reocalstructed in Malew between Castletown and Cross-four-ways, and between Oastletown and the boundary of Arbory, in the Arbory Road; also, the cost per yard. 2. Whether it is the intention of the Highway Board to constrict, in the near future, any foot- paths in the parish of Malew on the main roads where there are no footpaths at present. The Receiver-General replied that the total length of footpath made in the parish of Malew was 2,399 yards, which cost 10d per yard, but that included the roadsman's labour. He could not say what other footpaths would be made in Malew, but the Highway Board were gradually making footpaths on the roads all round the Island. COURTS OF JUSTICE. THE LONG VACATION. The Governor : I have received private notice from the hon. member for North Douglas, Mr J. T. Cowell, of the following question—"If any arrangements have been made to obviate the ex• isting grievance of the trading classes of this Island, owing to the present practice of the law o urta being closed during the long vacation." I will ask his Honour Sir James Gell to give the answer to this question. Deemster Gell : His Excellency referred the matter to me, and I gave his Excellency a state- ment, which I shall now read to the Court :— That the Judicature Act, following the ancient custom, both in the United Kingdom and in this Promulgation of Acts.—Footpaths in Arbory and Malew.—Courts of Justice.—The long vacation. TYNWALD COURT, Augu,t 9, 1898. 551 Island, recognised vacations, but made provisions for the hearing during vacation by judges of the High Court, of all such applications as may re- quire to be immediately or " promptly hea,rd." The judges have always heard such applications. Since the present vacation commenced on the 24th July, the First Deemster has sat four days to endeavour to clear off all outstanding cases— but outstanding, not by reason of any delay caused by the Court or judges. On several of those days, he disposed also of other new cases. He has sat also one day in Castletown. Applica- tion has twice been made to him to hear pressing cases, and after fixing the days he was informed that the matters could not be brought on. He has fixed a Court for Thursday next, at Douglas, for hearing cases in the Common Law Division for the Island at large. The Clerk of the Rolls, on application made to him, consented to take a Chancery case on a special day which would be oonvenient to the parties.. The Second Deemster has left the Island for a holiday, but there will he, during the vacation at least one judge always available in the Island. As to cases coming on during the long vacation, the judges have always liberally construed the expression—" Cases re- quiring to be promptly heard "—but to avoid as much us possible personal applications to a judge, which are represented as being objection- able to the public, the judges are arranging to have fixed Court. days throughout the vacation. The judges, however, think that there is a mis- apprehension on the part of the trading classes referred to in the question. It is presumed that this grievance is with respect to the recovery of debts from temporary residents in the Island, but it is a grievance which will not be removed by the holding of Courts even more frequently than in non-vacation time. The issuing of a summons in, and the hearing of a case for, debt, will not secure or tend to secure payment of a debt, unless the debtor can be detained on the Island. Such detention can be effected, not by the sitting of a, Court, but by action of arrest, process of arrest, on which is granted by the Clerk of the Rolls, or another judge out of Court. No sitting of the Court in vacation time will facilitate the recovery of a debt due by a, temporary resi- dent in the Island. Proceedings in Court, and even an execution, may have the contrary effect, as it may hasten, the departure of the debtor to places where he can laugh at the impotency of the Manx Courts. The arrest of the person is the only effectual remedy, and no sittings of the Courts will avail to improve the creditors' posi- tion in this respect. 'The Clerk of the Rolls I do Dot know whether your Excellency will allow me to make one of two remarks in confirmation of the statements with regard to actions of arrest, which are, per- haps, not fully understood. I might say that on a former occasion I explained to the Court how impotent was the holding of debt courts during the vocation, as facilitating the real recovery of debt from persons who are in such a position that they would not hesitate to leave the Island. That has been fully explained, and it remains u: Courts of Justice.—The long vacation. 552 TYNWALD COURT, August 9, 1898. the same position as I put it then. At present you apply and show cause for a hearing. You cannot go b3hind the back of the statute. The foundation of all these suits brought during the vac.ition must be the fact that it is a case that requires to be promptly heard, otherwise it is not heard at all. Very well, you show to the satisf'sction of the judge that it is a case that requires to be heard promptly. and, under those circumstances, you will always be able to bring about a special court. But the cperation of that, as I explained before, will be this : If a debtor wishes to leave the Island, he will go even though an execution may have been granted against him I am not saying that in order to jaisc objection to the recovery of these debts, but to put people generally on their guard how they make use of these courts. Once they take out execution, my power to grant an arrest is gone. You cannot have an arrest after an execution. The very fact of an execution for debt having been issued stops every other process, and I must hold my hand and cannot grant it. Under the execution you cannot get hold of the person of the debtor, nor can you search him. He may have his pockets full of money, but you cannot touch him. Ali you can do under the execution is to lay hold of any effects which he appears to have and which you can get at. Of course, under an action of arrest you seize his person and any property you can get hold of, and if he is possessed of money when you imprison him, you will get that money.

  • Doing a Good Deed: the Uniqueness of the Manx Deed
    May 2020 Doing a Good Deed: The Uniqueness of the Manx Deed. The Legal Mechanism of the Deed It was said by the English Kings Bench Division in Sharington v Strotton (1564) 1 Plow. 298, 308 that the law of England was that there were two ways of making contracts or agreements. One by words and one in writing. The court opined that because words “are oftentimes spoken by men unadvisedly and without deliberation”, a contract by words alone will not bind without valuable consideration (being a benefit gained or detriment suffered, per Lush J (at 162) in Currie v Misa (1874) LR 10 Ex 153). However, this would not be the case when an agreement was made by deed which would represent an enforceable promise made without valuable consideration due to the formality of the decision to make an accord. The court stated in Sharington v Strotton at [308]: - “For when a man passes a thing by deed, first there is the determination of the mind to do it, and upon that he causes it to be written, which is one part of deliberation, and afterwards he puts his seal to it, which is another part of deliberation, and lastly he delivers the writing as his deed, which is the consummation of his resolution; and by the delivery of the deed from him that makes it to him to whom it is made, he gives his assent to part with the thing contained in the deed to him to whom he delivers the deed, and this delivery is as a ceremony in law, signifying fully his good-will that the thing in the deed should pass from him to the other.” Contracts by deed therefore played a role in the common law to protect the party or parties from imprudent commitments.

  • Jersey & Guernsey Law Review | a Very Particular Remedy: Doleance In
    Jersey & Guernsey Law Review – June 2011 A VERY PARTICULAR REMEDY: DOLEANCE IN THE CROWN DEPENDENCIES Lucy Marsh-Smith This article examines the origin, scope and extent of the Doléance1 remedy in the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, concluding that the remedy has developed on diverse lines, so that the common name gives rise to actions very different in scope when one compares the customary law with Manx common law. 1 In the Guernsey case of Bassington Ltd v HM Procureur,2 Collins, JA, President said— “The inhabitants of Guernsey, Jersey and the Isle of Man have certain very particular remedies each of which is named a Doléance. Both the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man have in the past considered the remedy peculiar to themselves, without apparent knowledge of the existence of a remedy similarly named in the other jurisdiction. Thus the Deemster in Re the Attorney General of the Isle of Man3 considered it was unique to the Isle of Man, and there is one reference to it having been said that it is peculiar to the Channel Islands (see Bentwich—Practice of the Privy Council in Judicial Matters 3rd ed (1937), at p 54). The nature of the remedy and the means by which it is employed may differ. In the Isle of Man and Jersey it is already well established that the local Courts have jurisdiction to hear a Doléance. In Guernsey the position is much less clear.” Doleance in the Isle of Man 2 Before considering the position in the Channel Islands any further it is helpful to set out the main features of the doleance remedy in the Isle of Man, a jurisdiction where one would not expect to find the use of a French term.

Moore’s name appears on the title page to Manx Ballads and Music, the work involved in its compilation and editing was not his alone as he acknowledged within its pages. For starters, he did no collecting himself, drawing instead on the efforts of Henry Bridson in the main, along with Annie Gell, Elizabeth Jane Graves, and John Edward Kelly. The tunes that appeared in harmonised form were prepared by Mary Louisa Wood and Edith Lilian McKnight and overseen by Colin Brown. A number of individuals submitted tunes and texts seemingly from their own recollection, namely Robert Henry Bridson (referred to as Harry Bridson), Thomas Edward Brown, William Cashen, Margaret Frissel Ferrier, Robert Kerruish, Rev. John Kewley, and James Bell Nicholson. Texts were passed to Moore by John Rhys and Karl Roeder. William John Cain edited the Manx of the texts, T.E. Brown wrote the preface, and John Miller Nicholson provided the illustrations. And, finally, there are the singers themselves: John Bridson, John Cain, Philip Cain, John Christian Cannell?, Henry Cregeen, Thomas Crellin, James Gawne, Mary Ann Gawne, William Harrison, Thomas Kermode, John Lace, John Quayle, and Thomas Wynter. To round matters off, there was Margaret Kelly, the source of an anecdote about Thurot and Elliot, and a ‘Miss Teare’ who was the source of a children’s rhyme, and to end with the unnamed singer who sang Lhigey, Lhigey for E.J.

  • England and the Isle of Man
    When Is a Colony Not a Colony? England and The Isle of Man Augur Pearce* Abstract Manx emancipation from English tutelage still falls short of independence. Island courts' and constitutionalists' efforts to reconcile the continuing role of Crown and Parliament with insular aspirations are typified by dicta of the Staff of Government Division in Crookall v Isle of Man HarbourBoard and Re CB Radio Distributors. These cases suggest the Queen legislates for the Island as Lord of Man, successor to its former rulers; whether with Parliament or with Tynwald is secondary, so an Act of either body can repeal inconsistent Acts of the other. This article contests the claim of continuity between former rulers and the Kings of England, also the assumption that there can be no hierarchy between different legislative acts of the one ruler. This article argues that the law considers Man conquered by English arms in 1399, a continuity breach which gave King and Parliament un- fettered law-making power as explained in Calvin's Case and Campbell v Hall. Centuries of government by royal tenants-in-chief do not affect the position after the surrender of their estate. Royal continuance of the former Lords' concessions to Tynwald, and Man's exclusion from the Colonial Laws Validity Act 1865, are both explicable on policy rather than constitutional grounds. I. The Limits to Manx Emancipation The past 150 years have seen a steady emancipation of the Isle of Man from English tutelage. But there remain significant areas in which that emancipation falls short of independence. The United Kingdom Parliament remains (in succession to the Par- liament of England) the Island's supreme legislature.

  • Petitions of Doleance2 and a Significant Body of Case Law
    Judicial Review The Petition of Doleance The procedure on the Isle of Man for challenging or seeking judicial review of an administrative action is by way of a Petition of Doleance. “A petition of doleance is the process by which the High Court exercises its supervisory jurisdiction over the proceedings and decisions of inferior courts, tribunals and other bodies or persons who carry out quasi-judicial functions or who are charged with the performance of public acts and duties.” Per Deemster Kerruish QC1 The Island has well-established jurisprudence in respect of petitions of doleance2 and a significant body of case law. In Re Kerruish3 in 1971 Bingham, JA described the purpose of a Petition of Doleance as— “…to provide within a comparatively compact community a simple and speedy means for the ordinary citizen to obtain redress for injustices which in England would be remedied by orders of habeas corpus, certiorari and the like. The essence of the petition of doleance is that it should be simple and, therefore, unencumbered by legal formality and also speedy so that the cases can be tried quickly.” The often judicially quoted definition of the petition of doleance is to be found in the case of Corkish v Boyd 4 in 1904 where Sir James Gell CR said— “This petition is one of doleance, seeking the relief which in England is obtained by the prerogative writ of certiorari. There is no such writ here, neither have we any of the English prerogative writs such as habeas corpus, mandamus etc. Substantially, however, the relief obtainable by means of these writs is obtained here by a different mode of procedure, namely the petition of doleance, formerly heard in the Court of the Staff of Government Division but, since the passing of the Judicature Act 1883 in (the Chancery Division) of the High Court … The procedure here is entirely different from that in England.
