Proceedings in Courts of Justice Act 1730
- Proceedings in Courts of Justice Act 1730
Proceedings in Courts of Justice Act 1730 is an Act of the Parliament of Great Britain (citation 4 Geo II. c. 26) which made the English language the obligatory language for use in the courts of both England and Scotland. English replaced the use of French and Latin. A medieval law from 1362 (36 Edw. III c. 15) had made it permissible to debate cases in English, but all written records were in Latin. The Act was introduced by the then Lord Chancellor, Lord King. It was repealed by the Civil Procedure Acts Repeal Act 1879.
