The Treatise upon the PRODUCTION AND INSPEC-
TION OF DOCUMENTS AND DISCOVERY is little more
than a new edition of the former Work on this
subject by Mr. CHARLES E. POLLOCK, with the
addition of the Cases which have been decided
since The Evidence Amendment Act, 14 & 15
Vict. c. 99, and observations on the extended
powers given by The Common Law Procedure
Act, 1854.
INNER TEMPLE,
October 24th, 1854.
TABLE OF CONTENTS.
THE Act of 53 Geo. III. c. 159, has been inserted in
the Appendix, as being the Act referred to by the
88th section of "The Common Law Procedure Act,
1854," although, for other purposes, it is repealed by
17 & 18 Vict. c. 120, and re-enacted in "The Conso-
lidation Act" of the same session. A reference to the
latter Act appears, by oversight, to have been omitted
from "The Common Law Procedure Act, 1854,"
which was the last Act of the session, and passed only the day after the repealing Act.
