The Ecclesiastical Law Centre At Middle Temple Library
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 July 2008
Extract
‘The Ecclesiastical Courts date from 1076, but it is certain that at no time in their long history have they been as busy as they are today. Most of their work arises out of applications for faculties to make alterations in churches, their contents or churchyards. The majority of cases are dealt with without a hearing and in Chambers, but an increasing number have to be decided after a full hearing in Open Court. Most Ecclesiastical Court Judgments are not reported; yet many of them are of considerable interest and together they create a body of Ecclesiastical Law. To meet an undoubted need, the Honourable Society of the Middle Temple has been glad to receive from the Ecclesiastical Judges’ Association transcripts of Judgments, to copy, bind and index them and to make them available for reading and, if desired, copying within the Inn's Library. If provided with copies of future Judgments, the Library will treat them in the same way.’
