Title: PETITION TO THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES
Author: [Bibb, George M.]
Seller: David M. Lesser, Fine Antiquarian Books LLC (United States)
Description: [Frankfort KY, 1824. 12pp. Disbound with caption title, as issued. Uniformly toned, scattered light to moderate foxing, upper blank corner of first leaf torn. Signed in type at the end. Good+. George Bibb is the first of nine "undersigned counsellors and attorneys at law, admitted as practitioners in the court of the United States, for the seventh Circuit and Kentucky district." John J. Crittenden [Governor, U.S. Senator, U.S. Attorney General] is among the signers. They offer suggestions to improve the administration of the Supreme, Circuit, and Kentucky courts. Docketing schedules require Judges "to adjourn the Supreme Court, to attend the circuits, leaving from sixty to seventy cases on the docket uncalled. . . Very many of the cases now on docket have been standing there for eight years untried." Additionally, circuit-riding requirements place unreasonable travel burdens on the Judges. Six states "are without the benefit of the circuit system. In those six states the opinion of the single District Judge is final and without appeal" in many cases. Bibb and his colleagues also criticize the use of Supreme Court judges to determine circuit court cases. Other aspects of federal court jurisdiction and the provisions of the Judiciary Act are carefully examined and analyzed. Not in Cohen, Sabin, American Imprints, Coleman.
