"Razón de los más prinzipales pleitos y expedientes seguidos y promovidos" por el procurador general Antonio Gaspar de Pinedo (1747 1753): una fuente de carácter municipal para una historia social, económica y judicial de Madrid

Abstract

Anthony Gaspar of Pinedo occupied a seat for the first time in the council from Madrid by virtue of the regidor title that Philip V granted him in 1746. Anthony Gaspar of Pinedo gave up this position after near twenty years of service. However, in 1745 he would consent to another regiduría, hardly giving up later their exercise two years to opt to the general attorney's office of Madrid that vacant Juan of Bilbao had left. Of their work to the front of this office has arrived until us a document testimony of the different cases that they went by their hands, source completely valid for a portrait of the social, economic and judicial life of the Madrid of the XVIII century.
