LA NUEYA RfF0RhA JUDICIAL

necesariamente que dar resultados
fatales Y pronto hemos de tocar

Otro de los inconvenientes que

judicial, es que la isla queda divi-
dida en- los mismos cinco distri-
tos judiciales que hoy existen. Y
mientras para los distritos de San
Juan y Ponce, SO nom bran dos
juzgados, para Ell de Humacao, que
abarca una extenslsima jurisdic-
cion, comprendida desde Humacao
hasta Guayama, solo Sc establece
un solo juzgado, con residencia en-
aquella ciudad, que esta situa-
tuada en- uno de los confines del
distrito, y como ST un solo juez
fuese suficiente para atender al
c1mulo de causas criminales Y
pleitos civiles que Sc susciten en-
una demarcacion tan extensa. En-
tiompos de Espala, hablan tres
juzgados en- esta demarcacion, uno
en- Humacao. Otro en- Caguas y Ell
tercero en- Guayama, y mucha Ia
