As to Judges of Landed Estates Court.
|
7. The jurisdiction exercised by the Judges of the Landed Estates Court shall continue to be exercised by them, and by the Judges who may from time to time be appointed to succeed them, and, in case of illness absence or other inability of them or either of them to discharge their duties, or of a vacancy in the office of the said Judges or either of them, by any other Judge of the Chancery Division of the High Court.

| |
The existing Judges of the Landed Estates Court, and their successors, shall be Judges of the said Chancery Division, and shall be distinguished as the Land Judges of the said Division. The rules and orders and practice of the Landed Estates Court shall continue to be used in proceedings for the sale or partition of estates, declaration or record of titles, and all other proceedings which would have been within the exclusive cognizance of the Landed Estates Court if this Act had not passed, before the Land Judges, unless and until altered by the Lord Chancellor and the said Judges. The Lord Chancellor and the Land Judges, or either of them, may from time to time alter the rules and orders and practice in all proceedings before the Land Judges, and make new rules and orders for the regulation of such practice and proceedings, and for the distribution of business between the Land Judges. All rules made in pursuance of this section shall be laid before each House of Parliament within such time, and shall be subject to be annulled in such manner, as is in the sixty-ninth section of this Act provided.
