Appeals from Circuit Courts.
The attention of the Council has been
drawn to a circular issued to Clerks of the
Peace prescribing the procedure in reference
to appeals from the Circuit Courts and the
notices which an appellant's Solicitor would
be
required
to
lodge,
serve,
and
file
respectively. The Council have had a com
munication made to the Ministry of Justice
in reference to this circular, and a reply has
been received from the .Ministry dated 30th
January, 1925, stating that the circular to
which the Council objected would be with-
.
drawn
forthwith.
The Ministry
further
stated that the procedure to be adopted
would, pending the making of the rules, be
that formerly in use for appealing from the
Recorder or County Court ;
that it would
be necessary for the appellant's Solicitor to
make formal requisition to the Clerk of the
Peace for a transcript of the shorthand-
writer's notes, and that it would be con
venient, but not compulsory, that Solicitors
should specify in their notice of appeal as to
whether they are appealing on law or facts,
or both law and facts.
Land Purchase Proceedings.
Mr. Justice Wylie has called the attention
of the Council to the large amount of advances
made by the Land Commission which stand
to the credit of estates and remain un
allocated. These advances amounted on the
19th January, 1925,
to £667,498, and a
considerable portion of this sum has been
advanced and has remained unallocated for
some years past. Mr. Justice Wylie has
received complaints from Vendors and other
persons interested in the proceeds of sales, of
the great delay which has occurred in many
cases in the allocating of the purchase monies
advanced by the Land Commission, and he
has
requested
the Council
to urge
the
members of the profession who are Solicitors
on record for Vendors of estates in which
monies stand to credit unallocated to use all
possible expedition in having the funds to
credit allocated. ————
