hence_o i_o say_v we_o may_v gather_v that_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n do_v not_o then_o take_v upon_o they_o to_o have_v any_o jurisdiction_n in_o ireland_n for_o then_o they_o will_v have_v

the_o like_a court_n of_o ireland_n it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o supreme_a court_n of_o parliament_n in_o england_n may_v do_v the_o same_o in_o relation_n to_o the_o proceed_n of_o the_o court_n of_o parliament_n in_o ireland_n it_o must_v be_v confess_v that_o this_o have_v be_v the_o constant_a practice_n and_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o great_a thing_n that_o induce_v my_o lord_n cook_n to_o believe_v that_o a_o act_n of_o parliament_n in_o england_n and_o mention_v or_o including_n ireland_n shall_v bind_v here_o the_o subordination_n of_o ireland_n to_o england_n he_o seem_v to_o infer_v from_o the_o subordination_n of_o the_o king_n
bench_n of_o ireland_n to_o the_o king_n bench_n of_o england_n but_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v 1._o that_o it_o be_v the_o opinion_n of_o several_a learned_a in_o the_o law_n of_o ireland_n that_o this_o removal_n of_o a_o judgement_n from_o the_o king_n bench_n of_o ireland_n by_o writ_n of_o error_n into_o the_o king_n bench_n of_o england_n be_v found_v on_o a_o act_n of_o parliament_n in_o ireland_n which_o be_v lose_v among_o a_o great_a number_n of_o other_o act_n which_o we_o want_v for_o the_o space_n of_o 130_o year_n at_o one_o time_n and_o of_o 120_o at_o another_o time_n as_o we_o have_v note_v before_o pag._n 65._o but_o it_o be_v only_o a_o general_n tradition_n that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o act_n of_o our_o parliament_n we_o only_o offer_v it_o as_o a_o surmise_n the_o statute_n itself_o do_v not_o appear_v 2._o where_o a_o judgement_n in_o ireland_n be_v remove_v to_o be_v reverse_v in_o england_n the_o judge_n in_o england_n ought_v and_o always_o do_v judge_n according_a to_o the_o law_n and_o custom_n of_o ireland_n and_o not_o according_a to_o the_o law_n and_o custom_n of_o england_n any_o otherwise_o than_o as_o these_o may_v be_v of_o force_n in_o ireland_n but_o if_o in_o any_o thing_n the_o two_o law_n differ_v the_o law_n of_o ireland_n must_v prevail_v and_o guide_v their_o judgement_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o case_n of_o one_o kelly_n remove_v to_o the_o king_n bench_n in_o england_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o king_n charles_n the_o first_o one_o error_n be_v assign_v that_o the_o praecipe_fw-la be_v of_o wood_n and_o underwoods_n which_o be_v a_o manifest_a error_n if_o bring_v in_o england_n but_o the_o judge_n find_v the_o use_n to_o be_v otherwise_o in_o ireland_n judge_v it_o no_o error_n so_o in_o crook_n charles_n fol._n 511._o mulcarry_v vers_fw-la eyre_n error_n be_v assign_v for_o that_o the_o declaration_n be_v of_o one_o hundred_o acre_n of_o bogg_n which_o be_v a_o word_n not_o know_v in_o england_n but_o it_o be_v say_v it_o be_v well_o enough_o understand_v in_o ireland_n and_o so_o adjudge_v no_o error_n from_o whence_o i_o conceive_v it_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o jurisdiction_n of_o the_o king_n bench_n in_o england_n over_o a_o judgement_n in_o the_o king_n bench_n of_o ireland_n do_v not_o proceed_v from_o any_o subordination_n of_o one_o kingdom_n to_o the_o other_o but_o from_o some_o other_o reason_n which_o we_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o make_v out_o 3._o we_o have_v before_o observe_v that_o in_o the_o reign_n of_o k._n henry_n the_o three_o gerald_n fitz-maurice_n lord_n justice_n of_o ireland_n send_v four_o knight_n to_o know_v what_o be_v hold_v for_o law_n in_o england_n in_o the_o case_n of_o coparcener_n the_o occasion_n of_o which_o message_n as_o before_o we_o have_v note_v out_o of_o the_o king_n rescript_n be_v because_o the_o king_n justice_n of_o ireland_n be_v ignorant_a what_o the_o law_n be_v we_o may_v reasonable_o imagine_v that_o there_o be_v many_o message_n of_o this_o kind_n for_o in_o the_o infancy_n of_o the_o english_a government_n it_o may_v well_o be_v suppose_v that_o the_o judge_n in_o ireland_n be_v not_o so_o deep_o verse_v in_o the_o law_n of_o england_n this_o occasion_v message_n to_o england_n before_o judgement_n give_v in_o ireland_n to_o be_v inform_v of_o the_o law_n and_o after_o decree_n make_v person_n who_o think_v themselves_o aggrieve_v by_o erroneous_a judgement_n apply_v themselves_o to_o the_o king_n in_o england_n for_o redress_v thus_o it_o must_v be_v that_o writ_n of_o error_n unless_o they_o have_v their_o sanction_n in_o parliament_n become_v in_o use_n complaint_n to_o the_o king_n by_o those_o that_o think_v themselves_o injure_v increase_v and_o at_o last_o grow_v into_o custom_n and_o obtain_v the_o force_n of_o law_n perhaps_o it_o may_v be_v object_v that_o if_o the_o judge_n of_o the_o king_n bench_n in_o england_n ought_v to_o regulate_v their_o judgement_n by_o the_o custom_n of_o ireland_n and_o not_o of_o england_n it_o will_v follow_v that_o this_o original_a which_o we_o assign_v of_o writ_n of_o error_n to_o england_n be_v not_o right_a i_o answer_v that_o this_o may_v be_v the_o primary_n original_a and_o yet_o consist_v well_o enough_o with_o what_o we_o have_v before_o lay_v down_o for_o though_o the_o common_a law_n of_o england_n be_v to_o be_v the_o common_a law_n of_o ireland_n and_o ireland_n at_o the_o begin_n of_o its_o english_a government_n may_v frequent_o send_v into_o england_n to_o be_v inform_v about_o it_o yet_o this_o do_v not_o hinder_v but_o ireland_n in_o a_o long_a process_n of_o time_n may_v have_v some_o small_a custom_n and_o law_n of_o its_o own_o gradual_o but_o insensible_o creep_v into_o practice_n that_o may_v in_o some_o measure_n differ_v from_o the_o custom_n and_o practice_n of_o england_n and_o where_o there_o be_v any_o such_o the_o judge_n of_o england_n must_v regulate_v their_o sentence_n according_o though_o the_o first_o rise_v of_o writ_n of_o error_n to_o england_n may_v be_v as_o we_o have_v here_o suggest_v in_o like_a manner_n where_o the_o statute-law_n of_o ireland_n differ_v from_o that_o of_o england_n the_o judge_n of_o england_n will_v regulate_v their_o judgement_n by_o the_o statute-law_n of_o ireland_n this_o be_v the_o constant_a practice_n and_o notorious_o know_v in_o westminster-hall_n from_o which_o it_o appear_v that_o remove_v a_o judgement_n from_o the_o king_n bench_n of_o ireland_n to_o the_o king_n bench_n of_o england_n be_v but_o a_o appeal_n to_o
