Curia 32 pura
The same Court
ought not to have
jurisdiction immediate
& appellate
at the same time.
1. The division
will leave law badly made
f every Court has
after doing the immediate
business
that belongs to it
has time enough
for Appellate.

Curia 33 pura
2. If any immediate Court

had so much superfluous
time
it would be the Court
of some thinly inhabited
territory.
But such Court
having the worst
public is on that
important account the least
fit for the purpose.
p. 10, 12.

Curia 34 pura

Court must on occasion
be ambulatory

Court to possess
more confidence
in men who by repeated

than him of the
immediate.

Mutual 37.
Appeal ought
to be claimable
by either party
even in penal
cases – Post off
to Appeal in
Procedure.

Curia 38.
Appeal should
go to a District
Court, a Sub-department
Court
or a Department
Court according
to the quantity of
business & thence
the number of
Courts necessary.

Quot 38
Number of stages
of Appeal proper.
1. No number can
afford perfect security.

30
2. The number necessary
is infinitely
lessened by publicity.

40
3. Publicity will
not supersede appeal
altogether,
because the
judgment of the
public on the degree
does not spread is not known till
after the decree has
been given: and
the apprehension of
the judgment of the
public is not a security
for intelligence
as it is for probity.
