Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Attorney General for the Year Ending November 30, 1941 I have the honor to transmit herewith the report of the Department Of the Attorney General for the year ending November 30, 1941, pursuant to the provi sions Of General Laws (ter. Ed), chapter 12, section 11, as amended. The pressure Of additional duties placed upon this Department as a result of war conditions makes it necessary for me to postpone until a later date as full a summary of the legal business of the Commonwealth as I would ordinarily con sider pertinent in such a report. A statement of appropriations and expenditures, the number of cases requiring the attention of this Department during the period of the report, and the details of capital cases, customarily included in such a report, appear on succeeding pages. The statute requires also a statement Of his acts under section nine. Section 9 requires the Attorney General to give aid and advice when required by either branch of the General Court in the. Arrangement and preparation Of legislative documents and to give his Opinion upon questions Of law submitted to him by the governor and council or by either branch of the general court. This section also contains a requirement that the Attorney General or some person designated by him, shall, when requested by a vote of a legislative committee, appear before such committee and advise it upon the legal effect of proposed legislation pending before it.
