Constitutional Code

Ch. XII. Judiciary collectively
§ Number in a Judicatory
English practice.

As to the species of law called Equity, if the
name of the Judicatory is Chancery, single seatedness
is preferable to many seatedness in any numbers
and in particular to number four. Such is the case in
the instance of the superordinate — the Lord High
Chancellor, and in the case of each of his two subordinates
namely the Master of the Rolls whose predecessors,
some hundred years ago, from being keepers of a parcel
of parchments, laid upon the shelves in the form of Rolls,
slid insensibly into a judgement seat immediately
subordinate to that of the Chancellor: the other
the Vice Chancellor, a creature created t'other day by the
present Chancellor for the purpose and to the effect
of giving encrease, to his patronage and dignity, or the
pretence of diminishing delay vexation and expence to
suitors, and with the effect of doubling it. Under this
same Equity if where the name of the Judicatory is Court of Exchequer
many seatedness and in particular fourseatedness is preferable
to single seatedness.

In the Judicatory styled the King's Bench, —
logical field of service including the scraps of Judication
styled Penal — the scraps of Judication styled civil, many
seatedness and in particular fourseatedness is preferable
to single seatedness.

So in the Judicatory styled the Court of Common
Pleas: Field of Judicature coinciding with the civil branch
of that of the Court of King's Bench: with a sort of
appendage consisting of a finger in the pie of conveyancing
business.
