aims AT giving English women the
right to practice as lawyers 1t is Il

The matter has been fought i'm the

Judgment of the Court of Appeal which
in December decided that the present
law did not give women the right To
practice, and that the only tribunal
which could give women such rights
Was parliament. The grounds for this
judgment were not that there was any
inherent unhtncss among women which
prevented them from appearing in law
practice, but merely that there never

ENGLAND. The Court helG that this
common law disability was further
