PREFACE.

THE period at which the following Reports commence is Michaelmas Term, 1830, when the enactment of 11 Geo. 4. and 1 W. 4. c. 70. sect. 10.- that "all persons admitted or admissible to practise as attornies in the Courts of King's Bench and Common Pleas shall be admissible in like manner as attornies of the Court of Exchequer❞—came into operation. That clause went on to provide, that such persons, when so admitted, should be allowed to practise as attornies of the Court of Exchequer, without being obliged to employ a clerk in Court in the capacity of an attorney of the Court, While it appeared probable, that by thus throwing open the Court, its decisions would increase in number and importance, and that the new Rules and Orders with the other arrangements pending at the time, would assimilate its practice to that of the other superior Courts of Common Law in the main particulars, it was hoped that the Profession would receive with favor a new Series of Reports, combining the above cases with those occurring in the new Court of Error established by the same statute in the Exchequer Chamber.
