Summary:

This volume, edited by Samuel Rawson Gardiner, compiles reports of legal cases from the Courts of Star Chamber and High Commission during the early 17th century. Covering cases from Easter Term 1631 to Trinity Term 1632 in the Star Chamber and October 1631 to June 1632 in the High Commission Court, the book sheds light on the functioning of these historical courts and their role in addressing issues such as forgery, perjury, riots, religious dissent, and other legal disputes of the era. With detailed accounts of notable figures like Archbishop Laud, the reports provide insight into the intersection of justice, politics, and society in Stuart England. Intended for historians, legal scholars, and students of early modern England, the work serves as a valuable resource to understand the ordinary and extraordinary proceedings of these institutions and their impact on individuals and communities.
