F J C Hearnshaw

""Leet Jurisdiction In England: Especially As Illustrated By The Records Of The Court Leet Of Southampton"" is a book written by F. J. C. Hearnshaw and published in 1908. The book provides a detailed account of the legal system in England during the medieval period, with a particular focus on the jurisdiction of the Court Leet. The Court Leet was a local court that had the power to enforce a wide range of laws and regulations, including those related to trade, public health, and crime. Through an analysis of the records of the Court Leet of Southampton, Hearnshaw examines the various aspects of this legal system, including the role of the jurors, the procedures of the court, and the punishments that were handed down to offenders. The book provides a fascinating insight into the workings of the legal system in medieval England and is an important resource for anyone interested in the history of law and justice.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
