Further Extension of the County Courts Debated
Lord Brougham moved the second reading of the County Courts Extension Bill. The measure would clarify the interpretation of the voluntary jurisdiction clause and allow re-hearing of decided cases in county courts. It would permit unfettered defences on fresh evidence and extend chancery authority to disputes under £100. The bill also lets parties refer cases to county court judges and contemplates closing costly local courts if needed, with a pay mechanism linked to abolition. The debate included Lords Craufurd and Anstruther as the House adjourned.
