The Code Of Practice In Civil And Criminal Cases For The State Of Kentucky: With All Amendments Made Prior To Jan'y 1, 1867, With Notes Of The Decisions Of The Court Of Appeals Of Kentucky, And Of The Courts Of Ohio And New York is a dense, 19th?century procedural code laid out as a navigational reference rather than narrative text. It consolidates Kentucky civil and early criminal rules into a structured framework, linking rules to sections and pages and incorporating notes from Kentucky, Ohio, and New York authorities. The excerpt centers on the Civil Code, detailing civil procedure, parties and interests, pleadings and papers, provisional remedies, and remedies affecting property, guardianship, probate, and evidence. It outlines two?track proceedings (ordinary and equitable), and clarifies jurisdiction among circuit, county, and justices’ courts, along with procedures for attachments, interrogatories, and injunctions. The tone is formal and statute?bound, enriched by cross?references to Revised Statutes and local contexts (Louisville, county courts). Overall, it functions as a comprehensive guide for judges, clerks, lawyers, and officials handling civil procedure, trials, and appeals, while introducing the Criminal Code’s beginnings.
