North Riding Of Yorkshire
The North Riding of Yorkshire is a subdivision of Yorkshire, England, alongside York, the East Riding and West Riding. The riding's highest point is at Mickle Fell with 2,585 ft (788 metres). From the Restoration it was used as a lieutenancy area, having been previously part of the Yorkshire lieutenancy. Each riding was treated as a county for many purposes, such as quarter sessions. An administrative county, based on the riding, was created with a county council in 1889 under the Local Government Act 1888. In 1974 both the administrative county and the North Riding of Yorkshire lieutenancy were abolished, replaced in most of the riding by the non-metropolitan county and lieutenancy of North Yorkshire. History Archives from 1808 record that the "north-riding of York-shire" had once consisted of "fifty-one lordships" owned by Robert the Bruce. During the English Civil War, the North Riding predominantly supported the royalist cause, while other areas of York ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Local Justice Area
Local justice areas are units in England and Wales established by the Courts Act 2003, replacing and directly based on the previous petty sessional divisions. They have been in existence since 2005. Local justice areas are used to determine which magistrates' courts may hear a particular case. Specifically, cases may only be heard in courts which are in: * a place in the local justice area in which the offence is alleged to have been committed, * a place in the local justice area in which the person charged with the offence resides, * a place in the local justice area in which the witnesses, or the majority of the witnesses, reside, or * a place where other cases raising similar issues are being dealt with. The areas established were identical to the petty sessional divisions. They have since been amended by the merger of South Pembrokeshire and North Pembrokeshire to a single Pembrokeshire local justice area, and the merger of De Maldwyn and Welshpool to a single Montgomeryshi ...

A judge hears all the witnesses and any other evidence presented by the barristers or solicitors of the case, assesses the credibility a ...), and were replaced by local justice areas in 2005. Petty sessional divisions were formalised under the Division of Counties Act 1828 (9 Geo. IV c.43), but they had existed informally for centuries as arrangements within the counties themselves. The areas were restated by thLocal Government (Petty Sessional Divisions etc.) Order 1973(SI 1973/1593). Former courts and tribunals in England and Wales Adm ...
