Appellate Jurisdiction Acts, 1876, 1887, 1913 and 1929
Appellate Jurisdiction Acts, 1876, 1887, 1913 and 1929 (English) (19 Geo. 5, c. 8). These Acts modernize the procedure of the House of Lords as a Court of Appeal. An appeal lies to the House of Lords from any judgment or order of the Court of Appeal in England, and also from certain Courts in Scotland and Ireland. But Administration of Justice (Appeals) Act, 1934 (24 & 25 Geo. 5, c. 40) provides that no appeal shall lie from the Court of Appeal to the House of Lords except with the leave of that Court or the House of Lords. Three members of the House, having held high judicial office, form a quorum, but any member of the House, whether having held high judicial office or not, has still a technical right to take part in a judgment; but peers not being law lords have not taken such part since 1783 (in Bishop of London v. Fytche, (1783) 1 East 487), except in Bradlaugh v. Clarke, (1883) 48 LT 681, in which Lord Denman took part in a hearing and voted with Lord Blackburn against three othe...

The term is derived from the 'justices of the quorum.' See JUSTICES, and the General Index to Chitty's Statutes, tit. 'Quorum.''Quorum' denotes the minimum number of members of any body of persons whose presence is necessary in order to enable that body to transact its business validly so that its acts may be lawful. It is generally left to committees themselves to fix the quorum for their meetings and if it is not fixed by the authority which constituted it then it is competent for the committee itself to fix the quorum as part of its power to devise its day-today procedure. Quorum does not apply to bodies doing judicial function. Quorum is fixed for meetings of committe...
