JUDGE FAIRBANKS: I am not sure that that is
|
|
3
|
necessarily a sound principle, if you are going to have
|
|
4
|
a People's Court which is divided into districts and
|
|
5
|
possibly contemplating more than one county, why is it
|
|
6
|
necessary to vary the civil jurisdiction, which is really
|
|
1
|
all you are talking about when you are talking about
|
|
8
|
varying, because you certainly couldn't have different
|
|
9
|
criminal jurisdictions, and you certainly couldn't have
|
|
10
|
different traffic jurisdiction, so what, really, all you
|
|
11
|
are talking about is your civil jurisdiction. 1 don't
|
|
12
|
sec any logical reason, if you are going to upgrade the
|
|
13
|
People's Court and put qualified people in them through-
|
|
14
|
out the State why the jurisdiction civilly should not be
|
|
15
|
the same throughout the State. As 1 recall, we recom-
|
|
16
|
mended from our court, and the Case Conmittee recommended ,
|
|
17
|
a unifon.i linit of jurisdiction, which, sc I recall, was --
|
|
18
|
I don't believe the Case Committee did pick up that recommenda-
|
|
19
|
tion. We recoroicnded $5,000 straight across the board,
|
|
20
|
exclusive, up to a thousand, et cetera. I don't suggest
|
|
21
|
that we get into that in this Constitution, but my point
