Lord of Appeal in Ordinary


Lord of Appeal in Ordinary meaning

Lords of Appeal in Ordinary, also known as Law Lords, were judges appointed under the Appellate Jurisdiction Act 1876 to the British House of Lords, as a committee of the House, to exercise the judicial functions of the House of Lords, including serving as the highest appellate court for the majority of domestic matters. The 12 Lords of Appeal in Ordinary (the Law Lords) were prohibited from sitting or voting in the House of Lords since they were the initial judges of the 12-member Supreme Court.
