TY - JOUR AU1 - Smith, J. A. Clarence AB - DOCUMENTS Translated by J. A. Clarence Smith (Continued from page 183) 34. My Seventh Point concerns permissive local legislation; and in this connection there are two matters to be examined, namely whether the act permitted may be performed outside the territory of the permitting authority, and again, if it is performed in that place or in a permitted place, whether it has any effect outside the territory. We shall deal with the two side by side. Sometimes then local legislation grants and permits something which in nature could be within no one's power, but only by fran­ chise particularly granted, and in matters to which it extends. For instance, under a city's legislation someone is appointed notary: may he draw up deeds outside the territory of that city? This is a point discussed by SPECULATORz. In my own view he may not draw up deeds outside the territory; and the rule is the same for similar matters which may be performed [only] within the territory. For acts of non-contentious jurisdiction, under power granted by authorities inferior to the Emperor, may not be performed outside the territory«. z.
