Details |
It is the court which exercises jurisdiction over maritime causes by a
process peculiar to itself. Under Section 3 of the Admiralty Court Act,
2000, the High Court Division shall have the admiralty jurisdiction. Under
the Act of 1891 the High Court division of this Court was declared as the
Court of Admiralty. The court exercises the same jurisdiction as the High
Court of England exercised in 1890 under the Admiralty Court Act of 1861.
