Arizona Center for Medieval & Renaissance Studies,US Paul Jodrell′s Chancery Reports (1737 to 1751)
Paul Jodrell’s Chancery Reports cover the tenure one of the most famous of all English judges, Philip Yorke, Lord Hardwicke (1690-1764). These reports were well known and well respected in their original manuscript form by Lord Eldon and by Lord Campbell, who were themselves Hardwicke’s successors on the Chancery bench a century later. The manuscript was generally known to the lawyers of the late eighteenth century and they were widely cited. The cases reported here cover a wide range of the law, concentrating on the law of real property, wills and trusts, marriage settlements, commercial law and bankruptcy, and the law of debtor and creditor. The editor has added headnotes and footnotes that identify the cases cited by the court and the reporter in order to make them more useful to the modern user.

Arizona Center for Medieval & Renaissance Studies,US Reports of Cases in the Court of Chancery from 1660 to 1673
A comprehensive collection of all known Chancery reports in this time period. This edition of Chancery cases from the Restoration of Charles II in 1660 to the beginning of the juridical tenure of Lord Nottingham in 1673 includes all of the Chancery reports, both in print and in manuscript, known to date from this period. It also adds to the Chancery canon the law reports included in Lord Nottingham’s prolegomena. These reports come from the judicial tenures of Edward Hyde, Earl of Clarendon, Sir Orlando Bridgman, and the Earl of Shaftesbury, three very different types of equity judges. Yet there is a consistency among them, which shows the continuity of the administration of the court. These consolidated reports are presented chronologically according to the modern method of presenting cases.
