HL Deb 21 February 1860 vol 156 c1449
THE LORD CHANCELLOR

presented a Bill for the further Amendment of the Process, Practice and Mode of Pleading in and enlarging the Jurisdiction of the Superior Courts of Common Law at Westminster. The noble and learned Lord said the Bill had been drawn in compliance with the recommendation contained in Her Majesty's gracious Speech from the Throne that some attempt should be made for such further fusion of law and equity as might be necessary to insure that in every suit the rights of the parties might be satisfactorily determined by the Court in which the suit was commenced.
