The office of Lord High Steward is very ancient, and was formerly hereditary, or held for life, or dum bene se gesserit; but it has been for many centuries granted pro hac vice only, and always to a lord of Parliament. When, therefore, such an indictment is found by a grand jury of freeholders in the King's Bench, or at the assizes before a judge of oyer and terminer, it is removed by a writ of certiorari into the Court of the Lord High Steward, which alone has power to determine it.The sovereign, in case a peer be indicted for treason, felony, or misprision, appoints a Lord High Ste-ward pro vice, by commission under the Great Seal, which, reciting the indictment so found, gives him power to receive and try it secundum legem et consuetudinem Angli'. When the indictment is regularly removed by certiorari, ...

Court immediately below and Court subordinate to the High Court
Court immediately below and Court subordinate to the High Court, the expressions 'a Court immediately below' and 'a Court subordinate to the High Court' had different meanings, and were therefore not one and the same. The test for determining whether an aggrieved party has a right to appeal, other conditions being fulfilled, is not whether the judgment is of a Court subordinate to the High Court but whether the judgment is of a court immediately below and that a single Judge of the High Court hearing a proceeding either as a Court of original jurisdiction or in exercise of appellate jurisdiction is a Court immediately below the Division Bench which hears an appeal against his judgment under the relevant clause of the Letters Patent, A. Rangaswamy Iyengar v. Pattamal, AIR 1971 SC 658 (659). [Constitution of India, Art. 133(1)(a)]...
