Salzer, Benjamin,
The Mayor's Court, established by the Dutch in 1650, was given this name by the English when they took over New York in 1664. Like its prototype in England, the Court aimed to provide justice for business men speedily and at lowest cost. In 1821 the Mayor's Court by statute became the Court of Common Pleas of the City and County of New York.
