several years, and on which con-
ferences of the bar association and
the judges of the Supreme Court

passage.
Before reporting the measure to
enlarge the jurisdiction of the Mu-
nicipal Court so as to relieve the
congestion in the higher courts, the

It also allows jury trial in the Munich
pal Court.
