If the Department Courts are adopted instituted
there will be three: the Parish Parochial
(or upon the Committee's plan the Canton) Court,
or else the immediate District Court, one: the
District Court of Appeal, two: and the Department
Court.

For the sake of uniformity the decision of the Metropolitan Court in the question of law ought to be Definitive — appealable to a Jury only as to the question of fact I confine the appeal from the Metropolitan
Court to the question of fact: for with regard to the
question of law its decisions right or wrong ought
to be the universal standard. The use of a common
Court for Appeals in of Appeal for matters of law from
all the other Courts in the Kingdom is to keep the
sta rule of law uniform all over the Kingdom.
Were it not for that, the course of Appeal might
almost as well end in each Department: Courts
for the capital town which is the of each Department
may be presumed to afford a public sufficiently
copious and enlightened.

I suppose here an obligation on the part of
every Judge to make a separate decision in every
case on the question of law and that of fact: but
that is a topic which belongs to the Code of Procedure.
