The Old Munster Circuit Zusammenfassung

The Old Munster Circuit Maurice Healy

The Old Munster Circuit, the legal memoirs of Maurice Healy, was first published in 1939 by Michael Joseph, and has reappeared in several editions over the last 70 years. These amusing memoirs affectionately describe the workings and people of the Munster Circuit, where Healy practised from 1910 to 1914. Healy goes to some length in trying to describe and explain his countrymen to an English audience. This book is one of `Ten Literary Classics chosen by Gary Slapper in The Times Student Law Supplement of October 2005.

The Old Munster Circuit Bewertungen

`A charming unstructured anthology of humorous legal anecdotes from Ireland. The stories include instances of judicial severity like that of Lord Justice Holmess sentencing an old man from a farming community to 15 years. The convict cried for mercy saying he would not live to finish the sentence. `Well, said the judge, `try to do as much of it as you can! The contribution of litigants is also well documented, such as that of the defendant in a case about the allegedly unfair sale of a horse. Examining the ethics of horse-dealing, the judge barked at the defendant: `Thats not what you told (the purchaser) at the Bandon Fair. `Oh no, but I'm on me oath now came the reply which won him the case.
