Abstract
Samuel Bray introduces the writing by his colleague, Christian Burset. Professor Burset provides a transcription of Sir Thomas Parker's (Chief Baron of the Exchequer and one of the judges who participated in Sackville's Case) summary of the judge's discussion prior to their opinion in Sackville's Case (1760). He continues by noting three possible implications—related to military jurisdiction, to advisory opinions, and to eighteenth-century approaches to legal argumentation.
