What is old, is new....

By RCP

Last night I discovered something I thought was quite interesting. The British have made all proceedings/case at the Old Bailey (London's central criminal court) for the period from 1674 to 1913 available online.

It is fascinating to go back and look at the old cases, the facts, and how things were dealt with at that time. Most fascinating to me are the old copyright and trade-mark cases. What struck me immediately is that the facts patterns stay the same - then and now (in a general sense). Not all that surprising I suppose.

In any event, the cases make for great reading, especially if you are a history buff. Enjoy!
