Book Description
Excerpt from A Guide to Election Law and the Law and Practice of Election Petitions The numerous decisions of importance since 1870, together with the changes in the law made by the Ballot Act, 1872, have altered the procedure at the trial of election petitions so materially that the Authors of this work believe a second edition may. not be found unacceptable to the profession. It has been thought advisable to entirely rewrite the chapters on "Scrutiny" and "Practical Suggestions and Evidence," but the Authors have throughout endeavoured, as far as possible, to preserve the form of the original text, and to compress all the new matter within the closest possible limits. The forms of Information and Indictment are omitted, as hardly coming within the scope of the work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
