The Civil Procedure Acts Repeal Act 1879 (42 & 43 Vict. c. 59) was an act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom that repealed for the United Kingdom acts of parliament related to relating to civil procedure from 1235 to 1852 which had ceased to be in force or had become necessary. The act also abolished the offence of outlawry in English civil law. The act was intended, in particular, to facilitate the preparation of the revised edition of the statutes, then in progress.
Section 7 of the Statute Law Revision and Civil Procedure Act 1883 (46 & 47 Vict. c. 49) provided that if and so far as any enactment repealed by this act applied, or may have been by Order in Council applied, to the Court of the County Palatine of Lancaster, or to any inferior court of civil jurisdiction, such enactment was to be construed as if it were contained in a local and personal act specially relating to such court, and was to have effect accordingly.
