Ch. IV Stages of Procedure
§.6. Sittings & Hearings

1.
On any enquiry, sittings
and hearings may
be in any number.
Sittings, refer to time
hearings to suit.

Divers sittings may
each be engrossed by
one suit occupied in
so many: divers suits
may be dispatched
in one sitting, each
after one hearing.

2
Under this Code, in
each judicature, in
every day of the year
are two sittings: one
a day, the other a
night-sitting.

Justice is as needful
one day as another:
in the dark part
as in the light part
A Judge can easily
officiate at night as a
Military Officer, a watchman,
or in any other
night occupation.
A watchman must
keep awake. A Judge
need but be liable to
be awakened. His
Night Sittings might
be Nightlyings.

3.
So, outdoor Sittings
as well as indoor.
Jurymen on view
are outdoor. More
trouble is now produced
pa by the excursion
of one Judge than
by that of twelve Jus.
Not but that here, the
Judge carries a public
with him. A Judge without
a public is a tyrant
under the name of a Judge:
always a tyrant: naturally
a corruptionist

Ch. IV Stages of Procedure
§.6. Sittings & Hearings

4.
A Sitting is either
1. Of course, or appointed,
or say by
appointment.
1. In course, Judge receives
initiative application.
2. By appointment in
consequence of an order
for attendance at
a particular day and
hour, to any person
or persons after an
initiatory application.
Night Sittings are never
by appointment
Outdoor Sittings made
of course.

5.
Exceptions excepted,
under this Code, in
all Sittings and all
hearings, publicity
is maximized. For
exceptions, see Const.
Code. Ch. XI. Judiciary
Collectively §.

For the mode of maximization,
see Const.
Code, Ch. XI. Judiciary
Collectively. §. Actors.

6.
Stages of Judicature
might be thought here
more numerous than
expressed: an additional
one, to wit as often
as any part of a suit
passed from one Judge
to another — particularly
from a Depute
to the principal.

This, however, is frequently
matter of necessity
in all Systems, and
a is it so considered.

Ch. IV Stages of Procedure
§.6. Sittings & Hearings

6.
Place does not change
here as there: thence,
nor is the vexation of
transition imposed
on parties & Witnesses.
In general, where
change has place,
the Original Enquiry
will be by a Depute,
the recapitulatory, i.e.
the Quasi Jury do by
the principal —

Desirable it is in
proportion to complexity,
intricacy and importance
that by the
Judge who ultimately
decides, all the evidence
should have been heard,
that the whole may
have presented itself
to him in the same
shape, and that the
best.
