HC Deb 22 July 1897 vol 51 cc720-1
MR. D. MACALEESE (Monaghan, N.)

I beg to ask the Attorney General for Ireland whether it is the practice in Ireland for County Court Judges and Recorders of cities to supply the Judges of Assize, before the hearing of appeals, with extra judicial information in regard to cases heard and determined by said Judges and Recorders?

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. J. ATKINSON, LONDONDERRY, N.)

No such practice as is mentioned in the Question, as far as I know, prevails, nor until I read the Question of the hon. Member was I aware that it had ever been suggested that it did prevail. And I may say that I do not believe that the Judges of either the Superior or County Courts are capable of resorting to it.
