Synopsis

Dwarris' Treatise is a work on the construction and

interpretation of statutes and constitutions, made valuable

to the American practitioner by the work of the New

York jurist, Platt Potter. According to Sweet & Maxwell,

it includes "an excellent statutory history of the English

law from Magna Carta down to the end of the reign of

George IV" (1:547). Final American edition.

SIR FORTUNATUS DWARRIS [1786-1860] was an English

jurist. He was a master of the Queen's Bench and held

the office of treasurer of the Middle Temple.
