The Police Justice presents the follow
ing report: The City Clerk has return
ed to me my report as Police Justice for
the quarter ending April 3Oth 1871, for
correction for the reason, as appeared by
the report of the Committee on Police
endorsed thereon, that I have charged
so cents for docketing instead of 25 cts. :.
as the present law provides I herewith
return my said report without correction,
which is done for the reason that the act
| Of the Legislature amending the law re-
| latlng to Justices fees and changing the
allowance for docketing to 25 cts, was
not published until March 31st, 1871 and
all the cases in said report mentioned in
which docketing was charged at SO cts,
occurred previous to the publication of
such law. Sec. 81 of article 7 of the
Constitution of this State provides that
mo general law shall be in force until
published consequently the charge for
docketing in my said report being in &C
cordance with the old law, and all having
been incurred or charged previous to the
publication of the law changing the old
rates, must it scenes to me be legal.
Respectfully, Don A. SHOVE.
