1877demi-veau brun, tit. & tom. dorés sur pc. de maroquin bordeaux et vert, dos à 5 nerfs richement orné de fleurons dorés et filets à froid, (rel. lég. frottée avec épidermures, des rousseurs majoritairement sur les premières et dernières pages), bon état L’auteur fut un des grands avocats libéraux du XIXe siècle. Le premier volume recueille les plaidoiries prononcées dans les affaires à caractère politique (v. notamment l’affaire Fieschi auteur d’une tentative d’assassinat contre Louis-Philippe, l’affaire Orsini, pour la tentative d’assassinat contre Napoléon III). Cette seconde et dernière édition étoffe la partie consacrée aux affaires criminelles et civiles. Ainsi le second volume porte uniquement sur les matières pénales et on notera entre autres une très intéressante plaidoirie en 1828 en matière de propriété intellectuelle, qui constitue une très bonne analyse de la matière. Le dernier volume relate les plaidoyers et réquisitoires des affaires civiles.

rif. 95800Very Good. Single leaf folded to form four pages with list of 83 names on first two pages. Three later horizontal folds probably for filing. Has some pencil markings beside most names -- either a red "x" or an black line. Ink note at top of one of the narrow folded section on last page:Jury of 80 Men for trial of Jorden on Tuesday 28th Inst. Waterstain -- name still quite readable -- a bit wavy but covers about the right third of both leaves as folded. No information as to date or location. Looks like it probably dates sometime in first two-thirds of 19th century. Someone might be able to narrow it down -- most juror names seem common but Plesant W. Ponder probably is not. Later pencil note in unknown hand on last page: possibly Lawrence County Alabama. unknown
