Excerpt from Hand-Book of Procedure in Criminal Cases Before Justices of the Peace: With Alphabetical Synopsis of Offences and Forms of Charges

SO the justice, before proceeding in any matter, must look to see if there is statutory authority for it, either express or necessarily implied. If, for instance, a statute relating to an offence says, that any person committing a certain act is liable to a penalty upon summary conviction (not saying by a justice of the peace), this would necessarily imply an authority on the part of any justice having territorial jurisdiction in the matter.
