Lyttleton Bayley

Sir Lyttleton Holyoake Bayley (6 May 1827 – 4 August 1910),[1] was an English lawyer who served as Attorney-General of New South Wales, Acting Chief Justice at the Bombay High Court and Advocate-General of Bombay.

[5] Bayley was called to the bar at the Middle Temple in May 1850, and married, in May 1852, Isabella, daughter of Anthony Mactier, of Durris House, Kincardineshire, who died in April 1860.

[6] His appointment gave great offence to the legal fraternity, as he had been but a short time in the colony; and Daniel Deniehy moved a resolution censuring his nomination.

[7] He resigned from the Legislative Assembly on 26 November 1859,[6] and moved to Melbourne before returning to England.

[2] When Charles Farran, junior to him, was posted Chief Justice, he resigned in 1895.
