FURTHER HEARING
(bouvier) | FURTHER HEARING, crim. law, practice. Hearing at another time.
2. Prisoners are frequently committed for further hearing, either when
there is not sufficient evidence for a final commitment, or because the
magistrate has not time, at the moment, to hear the whole of the evidence.
The magistrate is required by law, and by every principle of humanity, to
hear the prisoner as soon as possible after a commitment for further
hearing; and if he neglect to do so within a reasonable time, he becomes a
trespasser. 10 Barn. & Cresw. 28; S. C. 5 Man. & Ry. 53. Fifteen days were
held an unreasonable time, unless under special circumstances. 4 Carr. & P.
134; 4 Day, 98; 6 S. & R. 427.
3. In Massachusetts, magistrates may by statute, adjourn the case for
ten days. Rev. Laws, 1 3 5, s. 9.
4. It is the practice in England to commit for three days, and then
from three days to three days. 1 Chitty's Criminal Law, 74.
