In 1843, however, he ceased to practise as such, and entered at the Inner See also:Temple, being called to the See also:bar in 1850, after having practised for some See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf.

time as a See also:special pleader. He joined the Western See also:circuit, but soon ex-changed it for the Midland. He obtained a large business as a junior, and became a See also:queen's counsel and bencher of his See also:inn in 1864. As a Q.C. he had a very extensive See also:common See also:law practice, and had for some time been the See also:leader of the Midland circuit, when in See also:February 1875, on the retirement of Mr See also:Justice Keating, he was raised to the See also:bench as a justice of the queen's bench. Mr Justice Field was an excellent See also:puisne judge of the type that attracts but little public See also:attention. He was a first-See also:rate lawyer,had a See also:good knowledge of commercial matters, See also:great shrewdness and a See also:quick See also:intellect, while he was also painstaking and scrupulously See also:fair. When the rules of the Supreme See also:Court 1883 came into force in the autumn of that See also:year, Mr Justice Field was so well recognized an authority upon all questions of practice that the See also:lord See also:chancellor selected him to sit continuously at See also:Judges' See also:Chambers, in See also:- ORDER

This he did for nearly a year, and his name will always, to a large extent, be associated with the settling of the details of the new See also:procedure, which finally did away with the former elaborate See also:system of " special See also:pleading." In 1890 he retired from the bench and was raised to the See also:peerage as Baron Field of Bakeham, becoming at the same time a member of the privy See also:council. In the See also:House of Lords he at first took See also:part, not infrequently, in the See also:hearing of appeals, and notably delivered a carefully-reasoned See also:judgment in the See also:case of the See also:Bank of See also:England v. Vagliano See also:Brothers (5th of See also:March 1891), in which, with Lord See also:Bramwell, he differed from the See also:majority of his See also:brother peers. Before See also:long, however, deafness and advancing years rendered his attendances less frequent. Lord Field died at See also:Bognor on the 23rd of See also:January 1907, and as he See also:left no issue the peerage became See also:extinct.
