Sinopsis

Excerpt from A Digest of the Subjects of Probate, Divorce, Bankruptcy, Admiralty, Ecclesiastical and Criminal Law Necessary to Be Known for the Final Examination, Done Into Questions and Answers

The Council of the Incorporated Law Society have now added to the subjects necessary for the Final Examination the six branches of law formerly known by the title of the Extra Subjects. With the policy of the course thus followed by the Council we have not much to do. There are persons who consider that the introduction of these subjects has made the examination too wide. It is plausibly urged that nothing but the barest elements Of the six new branches of the law can be required from a candidate, and that this scanty amount of knowledge is unlikely to be of permanent value to him. On the other hand, it is said that it is the duty of a solicitor to be acquainted with the elements, at least, of every branch of law in which he may possibly be called upon to exercise professional skill. It is often urged by persons of this Opinion that it is not requisite or even desirable for a solicitor to possess a minute knowledge of any of the various branches of law, except, perhaps, of Common Law and Conveyancing. What he wants, it is urged, is to have some acquaintance with the leading principles of law and points of practice which may arise in any case of whatever nature which may be presented to him. The argu ments of this school of thought have, in recent years, been gradually gaining ground in the governing body of the Law Society. They are now completely triumphant, and the student has, at last, to make himself at least superficially acquainted with every branch of the law of England before he can hope to qualify himself for admission as a solicitor. We propose briefly to place before the reader some information as to the course of study which appears to us best fitted to enable him successfully to pass that portion of the examination which is devoted to the subjects of Bankruptcy, Criminal Law, the Law of the Probate, Divorce, and Admiralty Division, Admiralty Law,'and Eccle siastical Law.
