Charles Molloy (1640 – 1690) was an Irish lawyer known as a writer on maritime law.

Life

He was born in King's County, Ireland, the son of John Molloy. Stuart Handley writing in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography casts doubt on tentative accounts of his early life. He entered Lincoln's Inn in 1667, and Gray's Inn in 1669. There is evidence he was called to the bar, and practised as a barrister.Шаблон:Sfn

He died in Crane Lane Court, Fleet Street, London in 1690.Шаблон:Sfn

Works

Molloy was the compiler of an extensive treatise on maritime law and commerce, entitled De Jure Maritimo et Navali. It was successful despite its derivative nature:[1] its content was not much advance on the Consuetudo vel Lex Mercatoria by Gerard Malynes, and the coverage of law concerning bills of exchange was said by a later author[2] to be inferior to the treatise of John Marius. It was a standard work on the subject, till superseded by the publications of James Alan Park, Samuel Marshall, and Lord Tenterden.Шаблон:Sfn Its importance was its orientation towards the perspective of merchants.[3]

Molloy also published Holland's Ingratitude, or a Serious Expostulation with the Dutch, London, 1666.Шаблон:Sfn
