Petition for Justice

Bandying Origin
18 or 1.
X. Bandying each suit
from Judicatory to Judicatory.
This device formed no
part of the original
system.
1. Opulence increasing,
more business flowed
in than the time then
sufficed for.
2. By the multitude
of the sufferers, the burthen
of Jury service
in the King's train
in his rambles and
such at Westminster
for Cumberland and
Cornwall were rendered
intolerable.

Origin Circuits
19 or 2
Hence Circuits Vacation
in part given
to business, case for
fees: Jurymen saved
part of the way by
Judges detachment singly
from Westminster Hall.

Circuits
20. or 3.
For the local judicatories
365 days – Circuit
system gives 2 or
3.
When surgeons perform
full gallop, so
should Judges.

Circuits Mechanical mode
21. or 4.
Under technical system,
to no evil palliation
but from another.
From the Mechanical
arrangement, the bandying
system receives
it's palliatives.

Bandying Mischief
22. or 5.
That the mind of the
Judge should have had
before it any thing
less than the whole of
the grounds on which
it is based, is a source
of misdecision which
nothing but necessity
can excuse.

Circuits Mischief
23. or 6.
By the Circuit System
it is in theory established
and universalized.
In Westminster Hall
begins the seat and its
Record. On the Circuit
goes and comes back
Record with Judges.
Use none, but for fees:
advantageous substitute
to record a sheet
the each.

Mischief Lying Record
24. or 7.
Sole essential matter
the evidence: from
the Record, excluded:
chief part admitted, immaterial
truths and absurd
lies.

Mischief Lying Record New Trial
Palliative To the mind
of one Judge apply the
whole of the Evidence.
By the 3 others, nothing
is contributed but auspices.
Before the four
comes nothing but
rare and casual occurrences.

II Bandying Explanation Judge unconscious
23 or 9.
Record, brought back,
receives Chief Justices
hand writing: he
knowing no more
of it than of than
in his sleep of his
breath being rained
on a pain of glass.
Judgment for plaintiff
goes ordinarily to
the County Record,
comes back from a
fieri facias ordering
the Sheriff to sell Defendant's
goods, and
send proceeds to the
Westminster Hall Courts.

27. or 10.
County Middlesex on
London, journey none.
County any other,
trial at the Assize
County Middx. on London,
trial at Nisi
Prius: i.e. at Useless
before. further interpretation
we waive.

28. or 11.
At what place the
trial? Under the natural
system, variety:
no difficulty because
no chicane: no chicane
because nothing
to be got by it.

29. or 12.
Subject matter of contestation
and chicane
changing the venue
science profound:
to deception it, changes
the Useless before, and
try the cause at the
venue.

X. Needless transference &c

II. Bandying A Judge New Trial
30. or 13.
At the bottom of Useless
before a venue in
are fees: the more parchment
on record the more
gold in fees. The greater
one's patience, the
worse will be one's
treatment.

New Trial
31. or 14.
On question New Trial
or not, 12 to 1, that the
Judge, on whose Notes
the motion is grounded
is not on the Bench.

a new Trial
might take place the
next day; before the
dispersion of the witnesses,
instead of next
quarter or half year.
