This is the highest court for civil affairs belonging to the church, to which appeals are carried from the spiritual courts; for upon the abolishing of the papal power within this kingdom by Henry VIII. in the year 1534, it was enacted by parliament, that no appeals should from thenceforward be made to Rome; but in default of justice in any of the spiritual courts, the party aggrieved might appeal to the King in his court of Chancery; upon which a commission under the great seal should be directed to such persons as his Majesty should think fit to nominate. These Commissioners to whom the King thus delegates his power, generally consist of Noblemen, Bishops, and Judges, both of the common and civil law; and as this court is not fixed, but occasional, these Commissioners, or Delegates, are varied at the pleasure of the Lord Chancellor, who appoints them. No appeals lie from this court; but upon good reasons assigned, the Lord Chancellor may grant a commission of review.
