Court of Admiralty

Read a random definition: truth

A quick definition of Court of Admiralty:

The Court of Admiralty was a court in England that dealt with cases related to shipping, collisions, and salvage. It was established in the 14th century and initially dealt with piracy and prize cases. Over time, its jurisdiction expanded to include criminal matters and other areas of law. In 1873-1875, it was merged with the High Court as part of the Probate, Divorce, and Admiralty Division. In 1970, a new Admiralty Court was established as part of the Queen's Bench Division of the High Court. Today, it is regulated by the Supreme Court Act of 1981.

A more thorough explanation:

The Court of Admiralty, also known as the High Court of Admiralty, is a court in England that deals with cases related to shipping, collision, and salvage. It has been in existence since the 14th century and was originally concerned with prize and piracy cases. Over time, its jurisdiction expanded to include other areas of law not directly related to maritime issues.

The Court of Admiralty was merged into the High Court as part of the Probate, Divorce, and Admiralty Division in 1873-1875. However, a new Admiralty Court was established in 1970 as part of the Queen's Bench Division of the High Court.

For example, if a ship collides with another ship and causes damage, the Court of Admiralty would have jurisdiction over the case and would determine who is responsible for the damages.

Going to law school with you is even more fun than going to San Sebastian, Irún, Hendaye, Biarritz, Bayonne or being sick to my stomach on the Travesera de Gracia in Barcelona partly because in your orange shirt you look like a better happier St. Sebastian partly because of my love for you, partly because of your love for yoghurt partly because of the fluorescent orange tulips around the birches partly because of the secrecy our smiles take on before people and statuary

Man, there is this girl I visit every month at this one restaurant who I used to go skinny dipping with naked like @ararara always talked about in San Diego. We randomly reconnected like two months ago at this place she works at and we talk a lot about John Steinbeck books. If I don't visit her this month, she might be sad. However, this is my first day not sick and I worry about getting her sick and I am broke. What should I do LSD?
