;GH delivered an opinion of consi-
derable length, in which he coincided with the argit7
ments of the Attoi ney General. His Lordship thought,
that upon every principle of reason, independent of
precedents and. former rules, the House of Commons
ought to be possessed of the privilege of carrying their
authority into execution. In vain would they have
authority, if they had not the means of commanding
the respect and obedience to that authority. The
privileges claimed by Parliament were not, as many
had ignorantly supposed, of early and recent date.—
From the time of the 43d of Henry VII. they had
possessed those privileges unimpaired. On that occa-
sion, when the House of Commons were divided into
a separate House of their own from the Barons of
the realm, they carried with them the privileges they
enjoyed when united with the aggregate High Court
of Parliament. There could be no doubt of their
right of privilege. Having exercised that right in
the case of Sir F. Burdett, and determined upon the
subject matter of the offence imputed to him, no in-
ferior Court could take cognizance of that determi-
nation. In ever view he took of the case, he had no
: . hesitation in con ientiously declaring, that this k,ac-
tion could not be aintained in any Court of inferior
jurisdiction.
Mr. Justice Grose, and Mr. Justice Dailey coinci-
- ied in opinion with the Lord Chief Justice.
There is therefore an end to this Action.

sad it was with that,oiew he had troubled the Court
so much at length with precedents. He had submit-
ted, and he.did again submit, that the House of COM-
monsbud no authority, and could have no privileges,
without the consent of the other- branches of the Le-
gislature. How was it possible tor their privileges
and authority to be the law of the land, if they had
Rot the sanction of the King and Lords ? The
pe-
cnliar advantages arising from the Constitution of
4 England, took their rise from the supposed check
which one branch of the Legislature had over the
other. Viewing the privileges of Parliament in that
view, he thought that any act of injury done to the
•.subject by them, was a fit subject for the considera
Lion of a Court of Law ; the judgment of which might
afterwards come to be discussed by the Lords inTar.

*prin• the nature and extent of such privileges. He
apprelieVed, that even supposing, that tlie privilege
of the House of Commons should be deemed by, du
Courts of Law as a subject improper for their consi

•IA ill that a party aggrieved by them had his actin]
'for the trespass committed, and that the Court, it
such a case, would be necessarily compelled to ente
into the. consideration of the merits of the subject.—
He was prepared to admit, that, in the case of Habea
Corpus, the Court of King's Bench had not the powe
of liberating the party. But,
_at the same time,

might bring his action for the trespass. the decision el
which might afterwards become the subject of cots
deration in the House of Peers, in the nature of
writ of error. The reason he went thus far along wit
his Learned Friend was, upon the supposition, the
none of the lower Courts, particularly the Courts
Exchequer and Common Pleas,. could be a Court e
Appeal to a Court pf higher jurisdiction. This w,
a doctrine to be found in innumerable precedents.-
, . But the main basis upon which he founded his argi
i anent, that the House could not have the power co
tended for, was, the established constitutional do
trine, that nu branch of the Legislature individ
ally could assume the power' of enacting laws, to I
binding upon the public at large ; any one of the i
tegral parts of the Legislature attempting to ena
laws by emit, would be guilty of a gross usurpatii
of the privileges of the other. This was a princir
which the Constitution abhorred, and it was one whi
he hoped ever to see held in the same degree of je
lousy. Any violation, therefore, of the freedom of t
subject, by the privilege of the House of COMMOI
would give him a right of action for trespass.

being the organ of the House of Commons, was
ostensible head of that body. He was disposed to

ParliaMent unimpeachable whilst in the House ;
any act of theirs out of the House, in contravene
of the common law of the land, was an illegal
unconstitutional assumption of authority, unkoowi
the Constitution. With respect to the writ itself
still contended, that, even supposing the authorif
the House to be a legal one, still the offence was
described with sufficient accuracy, and this he arg
from analogy with convictions at common law, wl
the Court was extremely jealous, as to the descrip
of the offence, before the party accused became the
ject of punishment. With respect to the argumen
his Learned Friend, upon the subject of the breal
of the outer door, he had only to observe; that it
extremely weak, and supported by precedents

upon so important a question.—The Learned CI

satisfaction to the Court, as to elicit a particular
pression of their approbation of.the luminous ma
