VPRS 4567 Judge's Note Books, County Court

These volumes were used by a Judge at the Ararat Courts to record information for his own reference. Details recorded include date of sitting, name of judge, charge, plea, evidence. The date range covered by these volumes, means that only civil cases are recorded as the Court of General Sessions handled criminal cases at the smae level in the court hierachy at this time. Only details deemed of importance to the Judge in a fraction of the civil cases are recorded.

亚拉腊法院（Ararat Courts）的一名法官曾使用这批卷宗，记录仅供个人参考的相关信息。所记录的内容涵盖庭审日期、承办法官姓名、指控事项、答辩意见以及证据情况。该卷宗覆盖的时间区间内仅收录民事案件，原因在于彼时普通诉讼法院（Court of General Sessions）在法院层级体系中仅管辖同级刑事案件。本次仅收录了该法官认为对少数民事案件具有参考价值的细节信息。
