The Forgery Act 1837 (7 Will 4 & 1 Vict c 84) was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. It has been repealed. Section 1 abolished the death penalty for the offences mentioned in the preamble. It provided instead that a person convicted of any of those offences was liable to be transported for life, or for a term not less than seven years, or to be imprisoned for a term not exceeding four years and not less than two years. Section 3 provided that persons convicted of offences made punishable by imprisonment could be kept to hard labour and solitary confinement. Section 4 provided that the Act did not affect the powers conferred by the 5 & 6 Will 4 c 38 or the 4 Geo 4 c 64. This Act was retained for the Republic of Ireland by section 2 of, and (Part 4 ) of Schedule 1 to, the Statute Law Revision Act 2007. It is still in force in that country.〔http://www.irishstatutebook.ie/isbc/bps1837.html〕 The preamble referred to the following Acts: *Forgery Act 1830 (1 Will 4 c 66) *2 & 3 Will 4 c 59 *Forgery, Abolition of Punishment of Death Act 1832 (2 & 3 Will 4 c 123) *2 & 3 Will 4 c 125 *5 & 6 Will 4 c 45 *5 & 6 Will 4 c 51 ==See also== *Forgery Act 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Forgery Act 1837」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
