High Court of Admiralty

Read a random definition: forjudger

A quick definition of High Court of Admiralty:

The High Court of Admiralty was a court in England that dealt with legal matters related to shipping, collisions, and salvage cases. 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 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 has a long history of dealing with prize and piracy cases. Over time, its jurisdiction has expanded and contracted, sometimes including criminal matters and other areas of law not directly related to maritime issues.

The court was merged into the High Court as part of the Probate, Divorce, and Admiralty Division in the 19th century, but a new Admiralty Court was established in the 20th century 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 High Court of Admiralty would have jurisdiction over the case and would determine who is responsible for paying for the damages.

Another example would be if a ship is stranded and needs to be salvaged, the High Court of Admiralty would have jurisdiction over the case and would determine who is responsible for paying for the salvage operation.
