Trial and Conviction
- When
- 14 June 1879
- Where
- Court of Arches
Green was tried before Baron Penzance on 14 June 1879, who upheld charges of Ritualist practices contrary to the Public Worship Regulation Act 1874.
The case was heard by James Plaisted Wilde, Baron Penzance, who upheld the charges against Green. The legacy row places the venue at the Court of Arches, but the passage specifies the trial was before Baron Penzance, who acted as a judge under the Public Worship Regulation Act. The Arches Court is an ecclesiastical court, but Penzance's role here reflects the specific judicial machinery of the Act.
