making uniform the lower court structure.

THE CHAIRMAN: Do you understand what Larry
|
|
3
|
said about the concurrent jurisdiction?
|
|
4
|
JUDGE FAIRBANKS: Yes, but raaybe I am not
|
|
5
|
making myself clear. In the way it is stated hero,
|
|
6
|
jurisdiction vested exclusively in the People's Court shell
|
|
7
|
be uniform, the implication being concurrent jurisdiction
|
|
8
|
is not going to be uniform.
|
|
9
|
MR. RODOWSKY: The implication is that is a
|
|
10
|
legislative choice.
|
|

|
JUDGE FAIRBANKS: All they refer to is a mone-
|
|
12
|
tary matter. Why don't yous reply say jurisdiction vested
|
|
13
|
in the People's Court should be uniform in all districts
|
|
14
|
or even simpler yet, People's Court shall have original
|
|
15
|
jurisdiction in such cases as provided by law, which juris-
|
|
16
|
diction shall be uniform.
|
|
17
|
MR. RODOWSKY: It is a question of who makes
|
|
18
|
the judgment. In other words, your language requires'
|
|
19
|
uniformity across the board, by constitution. This leaves
|
|
20
|
the judgment as to whether concurrent jurisdiction can
|
|
21
|
vary between districts with the Legislature.
