Description

Book Synopsis

Step into the Court of Chancery during the reign of James II with this essential compilation of legal cases that influenced Anglo-American law.

A boon for legal historians and scholars, Reports of Cases in the Court of Chancery from 1683 to 1688 brings together all known Chancery reports--both printed and manuscript--from this pivotal period in English legal history. Edited by W. Hamilton Bryson, this volume presents these cases in a modern chronological format, offering invaluable insight into the development of equity law in the late seventeenth century.
These reports cover a range of legal disputes heard in the Court of Chancery and shed light on the evolving role of equity in addressing matters beyond the reach of common law. Ranging from property disputes to fiduciary obligations, the cases in this collection reflect the legal complexities of Restoration England, shaping doctrines still relevant today.

Essential reading for legal history academics, practicing lawyers with an interest in historical precedent, and students of early modern English law, this work offers an authoritative and accessible reference to one of the most influential courts in the Anglo-American legal tradition.
