INFERIOR COURTS JUDGMENTS EXTENSION ACT 1882 - SECT 9

Saving as to limits of local jurisdiction.

9. Nothing contained in this Act shall authorise the registration in an
inferior court of the certificate of any judgment for a greater amount than
might have been recovered if the action or proceeding had been originally
commenced in such inferior court.

Provided that where a judgment obtained in an inferior court in Scotland
cannot be registered in an inferior court in ... Ireland, by reason of its
being for a greater amount than might have been recovered if the action or
proceeding had been originally commenced in such inferior court, it shall be
competent to register a certificate of such judgment in the register directed
to be kept in the ... [High Court of Justice in Northern Ireland], to be
called "The Register of Scotch Judgments," by section three of the
Judgments Extension Act, 1868, in the same manner, to the same effect, and
subject to the same provisions, as if the said certificate had been a
certificate of an extracted decreet of the Court of Session, registered in the
said register under the said Act.
