Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. Discover this fascinating collection of civil, ecclesiastical, and criminal law proceedings in France before 1789. At its core are the almost limitless powers of royal commissioners to take information in cases of any crime, question suspects without legal assistance, and detain them indefinitely without charges. The author provides historical background on these powerful figures, who were typically drawn from the ranks of Parliament. However, this work contends that these commissioners slowly evolved into an independent authority with an increasingly broad range of duties and a significant role in the administration of justice. These pages shed new light on the social and legal history of France in the centuries leading up to the Revolution, demonstrating how these commissioners became key pillars of the French legal system.
