 Constitution of the Irish Free State - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It was enacted with the adoption of the Constitution of the Irish Free State (Saorstát Éireann) Act, 1922, to which it was appended as a schedule, and was also known simply as the 1922 Constitution.
According to British constitutional theory, the constitution had been drafted by a committee under the chairmanship of the President of the Provisional Government, Michael Collins who was a Crown-appointed prime minister chosen by the
The Constitution of the Irish Free State was the constitution of the southern Irish state established in December 1922.

 Constitution of Ireland
The Constitution is currently being reviewed by the All-Party Oireachtas Committee on the Constitution.
The constitution states that it is the highest law of the land and grants the Supreme Court authority to interpret its provisions, and to strike down the laws of the Oireachtas and activities of the Government it finds to be unconstitutional.
The Constitution of Ireland replaced the Constitution of the Irish Free State which had been in effect since the southern state became independent from the United Kingdom in 1922.

 No. 1/1922: CONSTITUTION OF THE IRISH FREE STATE (SAORSTÁT EIREANN) ACT, 1922
This Act may be cited for all purposes as the Constitution of The Irish Free State (Saorstát Eireann) Act, 1922.

 THE CONSTITUTION OF IRELAND
The Constitution of the Irish Free State, therefore, lacked one of the major essential attributes of effective constitutions, in that it was not the instrument of supreme law.
The Twelfth Amendment of the Constitution Bill, 1992, voted on the same day as the Eleventh Amendment Act, 1992, and the Thirteenth Amendment Act, 1992, having been rejected by the people.
The Constitution of 1922, while recognising the People as the supreme law-givers, nonetheless contained a dualism repugnant to the republican ideal in that the British Monarch was a constituent part of the legislature (under Article 12).

 Irish Law - Irish Constitution
Divorce was introduced by constitutional amendment in 1995, and abortion has been the subject of controversial amendments in 1983 and 1992.
A new Constitution in 1922 meant that twenty six counties became the independent ‘Irish Free State.’ Six other counties in Northern Ireland remained part of the United Kingdom, and this has, of course, been the subject of great controversy since then.
Article 73 of the 1922 Constitution carried all previous UK law forward into Irish law, which explains why some pre-1922 UK statutes are still in force in Ireland.

 The Structure and Operation of Lithuania's Parlamentary Democracy 1920-1939
This principle was accepted by the Constituent Assembly in its provisional Constitution of June 10, 1920, and given a recognition of permanency in the Constitution of 1922; whenever the President was unable to perform presidential duties, the Speaker became the Acting President.
This constitutional prerogative was reserved for the Seimas alone.
In case of constitutional change or amendment, the Seimas' decision could be submitted for final outcome to the people by a general vote, if required by the President, or one-fourth of the Seimas members, or petition of 50,000 citizens having election rights.

 The Constitution For The United States, Its Sources and Its Applications - Preface and Preamble
France, Belgium, and Switzerland have put in their constitutions many provisions first employed in ours; but to the extent that other countries have failed to follow the Constitution of the United States their governmental structures are weak, as the study of the notes will reveal.
The Constitution of the United States is a law for rulers and people, equally in war and peace, and covers with the shield of its protection all classes of men, at all times, and under all circumstances.
Whether the framers of the Constitution intended that the Supreme Court should in proper cases hold unconstitutionaI acts of Congress and acts of the legislatures of the States is answered Yes.

 Governor-General of the Irish Free State
Under the 1922 Constitution drafted by Michael Collins, the Governor-General of the Irish Free State was the Representative of the Crown in the Irish Free State.
The office was abolished by two enactments, the Constitution (Amendment No.27) Act, 1936 and the Executive Powers (Consequential Provisions) Act, 1937 passed by Oireachtas Éireann in 1936 and 1937 respectively.
The first two governors-general resided in an official residence, the Viceregal Lodge, know known as Áras an Uachtaráin, the residence of the President of Ireland.

 Annotated Constitution pg 1922
Justices Douglas and Brennan concurred in Justice Stewart's dissent, as indeed did Justice Marshall.
Justice Marshall's dissent was premised on an asserted constitutional right to be heard in court, a constitutional right of access regardless of the interest involved.
The marital relationship in Boddie was a fundamental interest, the Court said, and upon its dissolution depended associational interests of great importance; however, an interest in the elimination of the burden of debt and in obtaining a new start in life, while important, did not rise to the same constitutional level as marriage.

Later in the decade, the club strongly supported the retention of the "Forever Wild" provision in the revised New York State Constitution, crafted by special convention in 1938.
They proceeded to organize the club by electing executive officers and a board of governors, and adopting the constitution and bylaws.
Within two weeks a certificate of incorporation was filed with the New York State Government, that was officially granted April 25, 1922.

 Official indoor base ball guide containing the constitution, 1921-1922: a machine-readable transcription.
Call a general meeting, elect temporary officers, appoint a committee to draw up a Constitution, and also a press committee that will write up the affairs and secure plenty of advertising.
Then adopt your Constitution, elect officers, etc. A good idea would be to register with the Secretary all the players of the various teams composing the league, and have the directors pass upon their eligibility.
A motion to deliver the ball by the pitcher without his doing so, or holding the ball so long as to unnecessarily delay the game, constitutes a balk.
