Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
Any justice with whom
the docket of his or her predecessor, or of any other justice, is deposited,
has and may exercise over all actions and proceedings entered in such docket
the same jurisdiction as if originally commenced before him or her. In case of
the creation of a new county, or the change of the boundary between two
counties, any justice into whose hands the docket of a justice formerly acting
as such within the same territory may come, is, for the purposes of this
section, considered the successor of such former justice.
