C.P.D. (UK) - Common Pleas Division - Law Reports
15-year series forming part of the Law Reports (L.R.) collection.
Ran from Volume 1 in 1865 to Volume 5 in 1880.
Because it forms part of the Law Reports, it is sometimes referred to by the legal citations of L. R. C. P. and L. R. C. P. D. or even C. P. or C. P. Div.
Thus, it had a number of name incarnations:
- Common Pleas Cases (1865-1872), Volumes 1-9;
- Court of Common Pleas (1874), Volume 10; and
- Common Pleas Division (1875-1879), Volumes 1 through 5.
The concept of common pleas is described at
Legal Definition of Common Pleas.
