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1854," although, for other purposes, it is repealed by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.
