Some subjects are entitled to have an attorney general: these include a Queen consort and the Prince of Wales, who has an Attorney General for the Duchy of Cornwall. There is also an Attorney General for the Duchy of Lancaster, which is a mostly landed inheritance that is held in trust for the monarch and administered independently of the monarch under the supervision of a Government minister, the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster.

Famous quotes containing the word persons:

    Trade and commerce, if they were not made of India-rubber, would never manage to bounce over the obstacles which legislators are continually putting in their way; and, if one were to judge these men wholly by the effects of their actions and not partly by their intentions, they would deserve to be classed and punished with those mischievous persons who put obstructions on the railroads.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I have found all things thus far, persons and inanimate matter, elements and seasons, strangely adapted to my resources.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
