3. Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) |
PARLIAMENT. This word, derived from the French parlement, in the English
law, is used to designate the legislative branch of the government of Great
Britain, composed of the house of lords, and the house of commons.
2. It is an error to regard the king of Great Britain as forming a part
of parliament. The connexion between the king and the lords spiritual, the
lords temporal, and the commons, which, when assembled in parliament, form
the, three states of the realm, is the same as that which subsists between
the king and those states -- the people at large -- out of parliament;
Colton's Records, 710; the king not being, in either case, a member, branch,
or co-estate, but standing solely in the relation of sovereign or head.
Rot. Par. vol. iii,. 623 a.; 2 Mann. & Gr. 457 n.
