William Burge
Edit ProfileMember of Parliament in the United Kingdom
Career
William Burge matriculated at Wadham College, Oxford in 1803 and was admitted to the Inner Temple being called to the bar in 1808. He then joined the Colonial Service, being stationed to Jamaica, where he served for 12 years as Attorney General. He was involved in a case that was to be overturned by the British Government.
Louis Celeste Lecesne and John Escoffery were arrested on 7 October 1823 under the Alien Acting by a warrant of the Duke of Manchester, the Governor of Jamaica.
They were considered by Burge to be of a dangerous character and to be aliens as they were thought to be Haitians. They had time to raise a writ of Habeas Corpus in the Supreme Court of Jamaica
The two were later rearrested and exiled.
They travelled to London and had the case overturned. In the course of this action Burge wrote a letter (more like a book) which put forward his view and the facts to the Secretary of State for the Colonies, George Murray.
Subsequently Burge was in practice in London and served as Agent for Jamaica.
He became an influential in jurisprudence through his book Commentaries on Colonial and Foreign Laws which went through many editions between 1838 and 1907.
