Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Law Merchant and Negotiability, Vol. 3 Although the actual origin of the Law Merchant is enveloped in obscurity, this much may be said with certainty, it existed in its early stages as a body of varying customs obtaining among a certain class of the population - the class of merchants. As the number of the merchants increased, so the existence of these customs became more pronounced, with the result that they gradually became of sufficient importance to be generally recognised by the king's court, and finally to be included in the general law of the land. A notable peculiarity of the Law Merchant in its earlier stages was its international character combined with its administration as purely local custom, at the same time it partook of the nature of the widest and of almost the narrowest system of law. According to Blackstone, the English common law consisted of general customs, particular customs, and customs recognised by special jurisdictions - such as that of the Admiralty courts. In the earlier stages of our legal history particular customs, where they occurred, formed a kind of local common law, which was recognised, determined, and administered by purely local courts, but it is a historical fact that the king's courts gradually extended their own jurisdiction by encroaching upon that of the local courts, and conse quently the king's judges became well acquainted with many of the more important local customs, and afterwards were prepared to accord them full judicial recognition. One of the most striking illustrations of this is to be found in the final and complete judicial recognition of the custom of gavelkind.

Download or read book The Negotiable Instruments Law of Pennsylvania Classic Reprint written by John J. Crawford and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-21 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Negotiable Instruments Law of Pennsylvania When the first edition of this book was published, the Negotiable Instruments Law had been passed in four States, viz.: New York, Connecticut, Florida and Colorado. In the four years which have elapsed Since then it has been enacted in Massachusetts, Rho-de Island, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Wisconsin, North Dakota, Utah, Oregon and Washington, and has also been adopted by Congress as the law of the District of Columbia. In most instances the law has been passed in the form pro posed by the Commissioners on Uniformity of Laws; but in several States a few minor changes have been made. These are indicated in the notes to this edition. I have also en deavored to point out the changes made by the law in the different States, and have added to the notes citations to the decisions in all the States where the statute is now in force. It is somewhat notable that so few cases have arisen under the Act. The reported cases number only about a half dozen in all; and in most of these the court was required only to apply the act, and not to construe it. Perhaps nothing could better demonstrate that the practical working of the law has been satisfactory. As in the previous edition, the text is that of the New York Act. For the information of the pro fession outside of New York it may be stated that the hiatus in the section numbers does not indicate the omission of any sections, but is in accordance with the plan adopted in all the General Laws of this State.
