PRIVY COUNCIL APPEALS.
THE PROPOSAL FOR LIMITATION AN EMINENT LAWYER’S PROTEST. United Press Association. Copyright OTTAWA, March 5. Sir Edward Clarke, King’s Counsel, addressing the Empire dub, at Toronto, protested against any proposal to limit appeals to the Privy Council. He declared that the latter in many instances saved the courts of the colonies from perpetrating great wrongs. [There have been suggestions in Australia and elsewhere that litigants should be deprived of the right of appealing to the Privy Council against the decisions of colonial courts, that the High Court of the Commonwealth or some similar tribunal should be the final court of appeal in colonial cases.]
