2 Benefit of Clergy
ист.неподсудность духовенства светскому суду (упразднена в Америке в 1790 г., в Англии - в 1827 г.)A person "stealing a slave, or being accessory thereto, and being convicted, or who shall obstinately or of malice stand mute, shall suffer death without benefit of clergy". (W. Foster, ‘The Negro People in American History’, ch. 14) — Лицо, "совершившее кражу раба или являвшееся соучастником в подобном преступлении и признанное виновным и при этом упорно, с преступными намерениями хранящее молчание, должно подвергаться смертной казни. При этом не принимается во внимание неподсудность духовных лиц светскому суду"
Pembroke was found guilty - not of murder, but of manslaughter. Whereupon he instantly pleaded his right of Benefit of Clergy, and he walked out of court a free man. (J. D. Carr, ‘The Murder of Sir Edmund Godfrey’, ‘An Ending for Connoisseurs in Murder’) — Пемброка признали виновным в непредумышленном убийстве. Он сейчас же заявил о неподсудности духовенства светскому суду и вышел из зала суда свободным человеком.
