Richard Bligh

Not to be confused with Richard Rodney Bligh.

Richard Bligh (1780-1838) was a chancery barrister. The son of John Bligh and a cousin of Admiral William Bligh,[1] he was educated at Westminster School and Trinity College, Cambridge. He graduated B.A. in 1803 and M.A. in 1806.[2] He was called to the bar by the Society of the Inner Temple on 1 May 1807[3] and was admitted to the Society of Lincoln's Inn on 17 November 1826.[4] He became an equity draftsman at the chancery bar. He was a hard worker, and had a fair amount of practice in his profession; but a considerable amount of his time was taken up by reporting in the House of Lords, in which business he was engaged for several years.[2]

Works

His works, in the order of their publication, are:

  • A Report of the Case of Bills of Exchange made payable at Bankers, as decided in the House of Lords. London. 1821.
  • Reports of Cases heard in the House of Lords on Appeals and Writs of Error. 10 vols. 1823.[2][5]
  • A Digest of the Bankrupt Law. 1832.[2][6]
  • Bellum Agrarium; a Foreview of the Winter of 1835, suggested by the Poor Law Project, with observations on the Report and the Bill. 1834.
  • Reports of Cases in Bankruptcy. 1835. Bligh was aided in this work by Basil Montagu.[2]
