This act abolished the local administration of justice, authorizing the governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, to order that any investigation, charge or appeal had to be tried in Great Britain or any other British colony; he could compel any witness to appear at such a trial and demanding bail for any person accused of a "capital crime in the performance of his duties." This meant that the trials would be held in Britain, by a British judge, ensuring a trial outcome in favor of the British.
