GAMING HOUSES ACT 1854 - SECT 9

On prosecutor making default another may be substituted.

9. In case any person who shall have laid any information in respect of any
offence against this Act shall not appear at the time at which the defendant
shall have been summoned to appear, or at any time to which the hearing of the
summons may have been adjourned, or if such person, in the opinion of any
justices having authority to adjudicate with respect to the offence charged in
such information as aforesaid, shall otherwise have neglected to proceed upon
or prosecute such information with due diligence, it shall be lawful for such
justices to authorize any other person to proceed on such information and
summons instead of the person to whom the same may have been granted, or such
justices may dismiss the first information and summons, and authorize any
person to lay a fresh information in respect to the offence charged in such
information, in like manner as if the previous summons had not been granted.
