Barry Yelverton, 1st Viscount Avonmore, PC (Ire) KC (28 May 1736 – 19 August 1805), was an Irish judge and politician, who gave his name to Yelverton's Act 1782, which effectively repealed Poynings' Law and thus restored the independence of the Parliament of Ireland. This achievement was destroyed by the Act of Union 1800, which Yelverton supported. By doing so, he gravely harmed his reputation for integrity, which had already been damaged by his leading role in the conviction and execution for treason of the United Irishman William Orr, which is now seen as a major miscarriage of justice.

  • Barry Yelverton, 1er vicomte Avonmore, PC (Ire) KC (28 mai 1736 - 19 août 1805) est un juge et homme politique irlandais, qui a donné son nom à la loi de 1782, dite d'Yelverton, qui abroge la loi sur les pouvoirs publics et rétabli ainsi l'indépendance du Parlement irlandais. Cette réalisation a été détruite par l'Acte d'Union 1800, que Yelverton a soutenu. Ce faisant, il a gravement nuit à sa réputation d'intégrité, qui avait déjà été mise à mal par son rôle de premier plan dans la condamnation et l'exécution pour trahison de William Orr, qui est maintenant considéré comme une erreur judiciaire majeure.
