This is a list of life peerages in the peerage of the United Kingdom created under the Appellate Jurisdiction Act 1876 . On 1 October 2009, the Appellate Jurisdiction Act 1876 was repealed by Schedule 18 to the Constitutional Reform Act 2005 [1] [2] owing to the creation of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom . As a result, the power to create law life peers lapsed, although the validity of life peerages created thereunder remains intact.
