Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book examines the role of police magistrates in Ontario, Canada, from 1921 when the author was commissioned to consider the best way to select, appoint, and remunerate sheriffs and police magistrates. The author points out that the Toronto Police Court is the largest in Ontario, handling nearly 20,000 cases in 1920, including over 1,000 indictable offences. The author notes that four magistrates handled this enormous caseload, with the senior magistrate holding office for nearly 44 years. The author discusses the salaries of magistrates, their importance to the community, the machinery of the law, the conditions of the court, overlapping courts, haste in adjudicating cases, and the need for new buildings and more magistrates. The author also discusses domestic relations cases, the filing system, the issue of the prisoner's dock, treatment of the insane, a calendar of cases, taxation of costs, stenographers, interpreters, meals for prisoners, private hearings, and the need for a female magistrate and probation officers. This book provides a valuable historical overview of the Toronto Police Court and the role of police magistrates in Ontario. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
