Book excerpt: Excerpt from Benedict's Treatise, Vol. 1 of 2: Containing a Summary of the Jurisdiction, Powers and Duties; Justices of the Peace in the State of New York, Adapted to the Code of Procedure in Civil Cases; Also, a Practical Treatise on Their Jurisdiction, Duties and Authority in Criminal Cases; Togethe IT is now twelve years since the Fourth Edition of my Treatise was issued, and I am grateful to be able to state that it has been received with favor by those who have had occasion to use it in the line of their business and profession. Since that time, however, many important changes have been made in the law governing Justices' Courts, and the various special proceedings within their jurisdiction. I have inserted in this edition much new matter, such as amendments made by the Legislature, and have cited authorities made by the various Courts, in order to give those doing business in Justices' Courts and within their jurisdiction, the benefit of the law governing these Courts, and defining their powers. When we consider that the greater portion of the litiga tion in our country is settled by and before these Courts, no one will, for a moment, hesitate in saying that the latest alterations of the statutes, and the latest decisions of the appellate Courts, should be placed before them; and more especially when we realize that among the greater number of these Justices of the Peace, but very few, comparatively, have access to the Law Libraries of our country.
