A quick definition of going through the bar:

Term: Going Through the Bar

Definition: Going through the bar was a daily process in court where all barristers present were asked if they had any motions to present. This practice ended in 1873 and was conducted according to seniority, except for the last day of a term when junior barristers were asked first.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Going through the bar was a daily process in which the court would ask all barristers present whether they had motions to present. This practice, which ended in 1873, was conducted according to seniority, except for the last day of a term, when the junior barristers were asked first.

Example: During the 19th century, barristers would attend court daily and wait for their turn to present any motions they had. The court would go through the bar, asking each barrister in order of seniority if they had any motions to present. This process ensured that all barristers had a fair chance to present their cases.

Explanation: Going through the bar was a way for the court to manage the daily proceedings and ensure that all barristers had an opportunity to present their cases. By asking each barrister in order of seniority, the court could ensure that the most experienced barristers had the first chance to present their motions. This practice also helped to maintain order in the court and prevent any confusion or misunderstandings.
