1913

It is we be lieve the first The that the Ministers of the Crown in England athe instance of the House of Commons have referred a question doncereing the British constittion to a judicial tribunal for final. [...] 3. A plain reading of the Statute may give rise to a doubt in one’s mind whether a ques ion of a purely constitutional charac er on which a Committee of the House of Commons had reported would come within the scope ok the matt ers which were intended by the Statute to be referred to the Judicial Committee by the Crown for report to His Majesty. [...] The case is recored in one of the most authentic documents of India which on the evidence of the inscriptions of Asoka goes back at least to the 3rd century B. C. in i s present shape and which is generally based on traditi6nes as early as the death of the Buddha. [...] In the Vinaya Pitaka Chullavegga VI 4. 9 the case of the Anatha-Pindika and the Prince Royal Jeta which was derided by the Court of Shravasti the then capital of Oudh is related to show the great devction of the Anatha Pindika to the Sakya Teacher and not to record any extraordinary judcial decision. [...] The American aothorities hold however that the question involves not merely the rights of the parties but the right of the Court which first gets jurisdiction of a question to retain it.
