Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book compiles and analyzes dozens of records of Supreme Court cases from the early 19th Century state of Illinois. This critical period of transition saw the transformation of the Illinois Supreme Court from a territorial to a state court, and coincided with abrupt changes to its jurisdiction, personnel, and procedures. The author takes a fresh look at the work of the fledgling court, its justices, and the foundational legal controversies adjudicated during its early years. Many of the cases in this book have never been previously published, and several of them have been newly discovered by the author. This book provides a unique and important contribution to the legal history of Illinois, and to the study of the formative years of the American legal system more generally. 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. print-on-demand item.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. The volume of reports being printed at a great distance from the residence of the reporter, he has been obliged to have it pass through the press with more rapidity than would have been desirable under different circumstances. It is not improbable, therefore, that many inaccuracies have escaped his observation, which would have been detected if he had had ample time for a critical examination of the proof sheets. He trusts, however, that no serious errors will be found in the work. This volume contains all the cases, in which any principle has been decided, and which have not been previously reported, to the end of December term, 1840. The Roll of Attorneys has been inserted as a part of the legal chronicles of the State; but the price of the book has not been enhanced thereby. 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. print-on-demand item.
