About This Item
1682 Office of English Sheriffs Michael Dalton England LAW Judges Police Crime
The first English treatise on sheriffs!
Michael Dalton was a 16th-century English legal writer who was known for only two works on British government practices. One of these was his 1623 treatise 'The Office and Authority of Sheriffs', in which Dalton discusses the statutes concerning sheriffs and police, judges and court cases, and laws relating to sheriffs. According to the Holdsworth in the 'History of English Law', "this book continued to be the standard authority until the beginning of the 18th-century."
