Excerpt from The Appellate Jurisdiction of the House of Lords and of the Full ParliamentThe decision of the House of Lords in the case of the General Assembly of the Free Church of Scotland v. Overtoun, and the practical difficulties and widespread dissatisfaction to which that decision has given rise, have made an appeal to the full Parliament necessary. The necessity has, indeed, been recognised by the Government, and a Royal Commission has just produced a report upon which, doubtless, Parliament will be asked to frame a remedy.A question thus arises of great interest, and of the very greatest consequence, touching the nature of this remedy. Is it to be considered under the form of an appeal from the House of Lords to the full Parliament, and to be framed as a judgment on the merits awarded by Parliament sitting as the final appellate tribunal of this realm; or is it to be in the nature of ex post facto legislation by the supreme legislature?It is clear that these two courses are in strong contrast with one another, and that the adoption of the one or the other course must affect not only the procedure to be pursued, but also, and to a very material extent, the line to be followed in discussion and the substance of the remedy to be applied.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
