John Stephenson Robson v Lawrence Lawson Brown: 14 Nov 1856

Appeals cannot be consolidated under the 6 and 7 Vict. e. 18, s. 44, unless they depend upon the same precise point of law.-Where, therefore, a consolidated appeal contained a different statement of facts as applicable to the several voters, requiring several decisions in point of law, the court declined to entertain it.
