The High Court of Delegates was originally the Court of Appeal from the Prerogative Courts of Canterbury and York, and also from the Irish Probate Courts. It was so called because the Judges were delegated for each prticular case... The High Court of Delegates was abolished in 1832 when the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council was established ...Wills [were] proved before the latter body until the creation of the Court of Probate [1857].<ref>Harwood.
