REORGANIZATION OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM.
On motion by Mr. OYLER, his bill [S. 80] for the organization of Circuit Courts in this State, and [S. 81] [abolishing Courts of Common Pleas, and County Commissioners' Courts - transferring the civil and criminal business of the Common Pleas to the Criminal Court, and establishing a County Court for the transaction of other legal business,] were severally read the second time.
Mr. CASON submitted a motion to recommit the bills, with instructions to report a substitute organizing County Circuit Courts; which motion he was willing should go with the bill and come up for consideration when the bills shall be acted on.
It was so ordered by consent.
Mr. BENNETT did not think these bills would get four votes, and he moved their reference to the Committee on the Organization of Courts of Justice.
Mr. OYLER said the Committee on Organization of Courts composed the Committee on the part of the Senate of the Joint Committee on Reorganization of Courts, from which these bill emanated, and the reference would be simply a work of supererogation.
On motion by Mr. RICHMOND the motion to refer was laid on the table.
On motion by Mr. OYLER these bills were made the special order for Tuesday at 9 o'clock A. M.
