Conflict of Laws - jurisdiction of courts - civil suits between natives -
jurisdiction of Circuit Court ousted by Protectorate Courts Jurisdiction
Ordinance, 1932, s. 9 -proof of native law unnecessary when proceed·
ings based on commonplace human action: When civil proceedings
between natives before the Circuit Court are based upon a commonplace
human action the court may be satisfied without evidence of native
law or the assistance of native assessors that the case is "triable by native
law" within the Protectorate Courts Jurisdiction Ordinance, 1932, s. 9
and that it does not therefore fall within the jurisdiction of the court.
