The New Law on Criminal Case-A pro- vision in the new Act to Amend the Law of Evidence and Practice on Criminal Trials takes effect from the 3rd of July, and will form an important feature in all criminal cases. In every trial for felony or misde- meanour commenced on or after the 1st July, 1865, the presiding judge, at the close of the case for the prosecution is to ask the counsel for each prisoner or defendant defended by counsel, but not otherwise, whether it is intended to give evidence; and if no evidence is to be given, then the counsel for the prose- cution ia to "sum up" the evidence adduced. In every trial for felony or misdemeanour, whether *he prisoners or defendants are defended by counsel or not, each one may open his case, and, after the evi- dence given, sum up" the evidence respectively, and the right of reply and practise and course oi pro- ceeding, save aa now altered, to be the same as at present! The object of the new Act is to make the law in criminal matters more nearly assimilate with r cases at common law. 1
