Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pope's Digest, 1815, Vol. 1: Edited With Introduction In the introduction to volume 21 Of the series in which the present volume is issued, the laws of Indiana Territory (1801 and to a considerable extent those of the Northwest Territory (1788 have already been critically examined. In a later volume Of the Collections the statutes of Illinois Territory (1809-1818) will be considered. The present work, volume two of which will appear subsequently, selects for special study one chapter in the statutory history of the last named territory. In the later complete study of that legislation the matters now discussed will, to a large degree, not again be dealt with. On the other hand, a number of important matters are now barely referred to, a fuller treatment being post poned for the later volume, where the Digest will merely supply illustrations in an account of the entire legislative process of which it was but a phase.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pope's Digest, 1815, Vol. 2 This is the second and concluding volume of Pope's Digest, the first volume of which was published in 1938 as volume 28 of the Illinois Historical Collections. In the preface to the first volume of Pope's Digest I acknowledged my great indebtedness to Professor Theodore C. Pease and the members of his stafi. In the preparation of this volume I have received the same generous and efficient assistance that I enjoyed While at work on its predecessor, and it is a pleasure to repeat here, with emphasis, my earlier expression of thanks. Incidentally to the preparation of these volumes of Pope's Digest, and the volume on the Statutes of Illinois Territory (1809-1818) which will follow them, the editor has examined almost all of the extant court records, down to 1830, in thirteen counties of the State Bond, Crawford, Edwards, Gallatin, Johnson, Madison, Monroe, Pope, Randolph, St. Clair, Union, Washington, and White. The footnotes to the Introduction in volume I of this work reveal my indebtedness to the records of all these counties. Particular acknowledgments for kindnesses exceeding official courtesies were made in the preface to volume 21 of these Collections to the clerks of Randolph and St. Clair, to which counties long and repeated visits were made. In other counties the records were relatively scanty and my visits short. Special acknowledgments may perhaps properly be made to Mr. James S. Gregg, Clerk of the Circuit Court, and Mr. Victor Pearce, County Clerk, of Gallatin County; and to the son of the former, Mr. Harry Gregg. For the courtesies shown me by the custodians of the records in all other counties, however, I wish to offer my cordial and appreciative thanks. It is an interesting fact that the sole docket of a justice of the peace anywhere discovered by me (that of John Marshall, for 1818) was found in Shawneetown in private ownership. The late F. E. Robinson, who then owned the docket, was kind enough to give me permission to examine it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This guide focuses on materials that are readily available to historians, political scientists, legal scholars, and researchers. Resources that assist in locating not-so-easily accessible materials are also covered. Special sections focus on the legal resources of colonial New York City and Washington, DC—which is still technically in its prestatehood stage.

Download or read book Prairie Justice written by Roger L Severns and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2015-01-30 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner, ISHS Superior Achievement Award for a Scholarly Publication, 2016 A concise legal history of Illinois through the end of the nineteenth century, Prairie Justice covers the region’s progression from French to British to early American legal systems, which culminated in a unique body of Illinois law that has influenced other jurisdictions. Written by Roger L. Severns in the 1950s and published in serial form in the 1960s, Prairie Justice is available now for the first time as a book, thanks to the work of editor John A. Lupton, an Illinois and legal historian who also contributed an introduction. Illinois’ legal development demonstrates the tension between two completely different European legal systems, between river communities and prairie towns, and between agrarian and urban interests. Severns uses several rulings—including a reconstitution of the Supreme Court in 1824, slavery-related cases, and the impeachment of a Supreme Court justice—to examine political movements in Illinois and their impact on the local judiciary. Through legal decisions, the Illinois judiciary became an independent, co-equal branch of state government. By the mid-nineteenth century, Illinois had established itself as a leading judicial authority, influencing not only the growing western frontier but also the industrialized and farming regions of the country. With a close eye for detail, Severns reviews the status of the legal profession during the 1850s by looking new members of the Court, the nostalgia of circuit riding, and how a young lawyer named Abraham Lincoln rose to prominence. Illinois has a rich judicial history, but that history has not been adequately documented until now. With the publication of Prairie Justice, those interested in Illinois legal history finally have a book that covers the development of the state’s judiciary in its formative years.

Download or read book A History of American Law written by Lawrence M. Friedman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-09-09 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renowned legal historian Lawrence Friedman presents an accessible and authoritative history of American law from the colonial era to the present day. This fully revised fourth edition incorporates the latest research to bring this classic work into the twenty-first century. In addition to looking closely at timely issues like race relations, the book covers the changing configurations of commercial law, criminal law, family law, and the law of property. Friedman furthermore interrogates the vicissitudes of the legal profession and legal education. The underlying theory of this eminently readable book is that the law is the product of society. In this way, we can view the history of the legal system through a sociological prism as it has evolved over the years.

By showing how close the life of the law is to the economic and political life of the country, he makes a complex subject understandable and engrossing.

Now Professor Friedman has completely revised and enlarged his landmark work, incorporating a great deal of new material. The book contains newly expanded notes, a bibliography and a bibliographical essay.
