Marriage
Marriage. Marriage as understood in Christendom is the voluntary union for life of one man and one woman, to the exclusion of all others, Hyde v. Hyde, 1866 LR 1 P&D 130. Where a marriage in a foreign country complies with these requirements it is immaterial that under the local law dissolution can be obtained by mutual consent or at the will of either party with merely formal conditions of official registration, and it constitutes a valid marriage according to English law, Nachimson v. Nachimson, 1930, P. 217. Previous to 1753 the validity of marriage was regulated by ecclesiastical law, not touched by any statutory nullity but modified by the Common law Courts, which sometimes interfered with the Ecclesiastical Courts, by prohibition, sometimes themselves decide on the validity of a marriage, presuming a marriage in fact as opposed to lawful marriage. A religious ceremony by an ordained clergyman was essential to a lawful marriage, at all events for dower and heirship; but if in an i...

Prohibition
Prohibition, a writ to forbid any court to proceed in any cause there depending, on the suggestion that the cognizance thereof belongs not to such Court. It is a remedy provided by the Common Law against the encroachment of jurisdiction.The writ issued not only out of the King's Bench, but also out of the Courts of Chancery, Exchequer, and Common Pleas, and now issues out of the High Court of Justice, on application by motion supported by affidavits for a rule to show cause (Rules 70, 71, of Crown Office Rules, 1906), to any inferior Court concerning itself with any matter not within its jurisdiction. If either the judge or a party proceed after such prohibition, an attachment may be had against them for contempt, at the discretion of the Court that awarded it; and an action for damages will lie against them, by the party injured.Sometimes the point is too doubtful to be decided upon motion, and the party applying is directed to declare in prohibition, setting forth concisely so much o...
