Circuits

Circuits are districts outside of London into which England is divided for judicial purposes, for the trial of civil as well as criminal cases connected with them. These are seven in number - the Midland, the Oxford, the North-Eastern, the South-Eastern, the Northern, the Western, and North Wales and South Wales. The courts are presided over by a judge sent from London, or by two, and are held twice a year, or oftener if the number of cases require it.
