Henry Jickling (c.1800 – 19 September 1873)〔 〕 was appointed as a caretaker judge in 1837 to the Supreme Court of South Australia, which is the highest ranking court in the Australian State of South Australia. ==Judicial Appointment== On 19 November 1837, Judge John Jeffcott left the colony of South Australia for Tasmania. This left Jickling as the only lawyer in the town; consequently, he was appointed Acting Judge while Jeffcott was gone. Jeffcott, however, died at sea on 12 December 1837, leaving Jickling in charge of the court. Although appointed as a caretaker judge, Jickling was responsible for two important issues: he codified the testamentary causes jurisdiction of the court and admitted the first practitioners of the Supreme Court in March 1838. Jickling was also a member of the South Australian Legislative Council.〔 〕 After Charles Cooper arrived as judge, Jickling practiced, at the bar for some years, till he was appointed to the office of Master of the Court, in which position, he remained for some years till he retired on the pension then open to all Government officers who had served for a certain period, and returned to England. Jinkling died at St. Helier's, Jersey on 19 September 1873, aged 73.〔 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「Henry Jickling」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
