History

Percy Farmer was appointed Police Magistrate for Enderby in 1946 by the Attorney General of British Columbia. He was given the powers and authority of a Stipendiary Magistrate of the Province to rule on minor breaches of city and provincial statutes, issue summonses and warrants and fines, and conduct preliminary hearings. In 1962 the provincial Magistrate's Act replaced the Police Court with a Magistrate's Court. Magistrate Percy Farmer heard his last case on Ocober 22, 1969, shortly after the Magistrate's Court was changed to Provincial Court. His position was not replaced.
