A Digest of the Nisi Prius Reports: With Notes and References, and Some Original Cases, Chiefly Collected On the Western Circuit
(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

James Manning
Edit ProfileCareer
He early acquired a familiarity with history, antiquities, and the European languages. He was called to the Bar at Lincoln"s Inn on 23 June 1817, and went the Western circuit, of which he was for many years the leader. His reputation rested mainly upon his learning.
He was no orator, and his powers of advocacy were slight.
But as a junior he obtained much business. By his knowledge of copyhold law he secured a perpetual retainer from the lord of the manor of Taunton Dean, Somerset, whose rights were the subject of continual litigation.
Following the passing of the Reform Acting in 1832 Manning was appointed as a revising barrister in which office he served the Borough of Newport in the Isle of Wight. He was appointed recorder of Sudbury in 1836, and recorder of Oxford and Banbury in November 1837, three offices which he held till his death.
He was raised to the degree of a serjeant-at-law on 19 February 1840, received a patent of precedence in April 1845, and was made Queen"s ancient sergeant in 1846.
This dignity, revived at his own suggestion after a long interval of dormancy, entitled him to a seat in the House of Lords ex officio, but gave him no right of speaking, unless consulted, or of voting. He became judge of the Whitechapel County Court in March 1847, from which he retired in February 1863 on an annual pension of £700. He died at 44 Phillimore Gardens, South Kensington, London, on 29 August 1866.
He was twice married: first, on 7 September 1820, to Clarissa, daughter of William Palmer of Kimbolton, Herefordshire (died 15 December 1847, aged 51).
And secondly, on 3 December 1857, to Charlotte, daughter of Isaac Solly of Leyton, Essex, and widow of William Speir, Doctor of Medicine, of Calcutta (died 1 April 1871). Their daughters were Charlotte Manning and Elizabeth Adelaide Manning.
