Act for better regulation of prize courts in the West Indies
A sweeping statute governs prize courts in the West Indies and Halifax. It prescribes salaries for vice admiralty judges, enables commissions across islands, sets fee rules, and extends powers to execute processes in colonies including Bahamas and Bermuda. Provisions cover sale of captured property, registry of proceeds, and enforcement of judgments on appeal.
