Articles on Law and Politics

“Above all, the common law is by the people (lawyers, judges, legislatures), of the people (juries, lay magistrates), for the people preserving and guarding its independence… the independence of the judiciary… and the independence of the advocate to do his duty not as the servant of his client but as the officer of an independent court.”
