I have rarely heard this phrase, is it not comman phrase ? How to use the phrase 'There being' ? I've tried to use it in the following sentences:
-
There being an exam tomorrow, I'm unable to go to market.
-
There being a mysterious murder of the king, the kingdom is in a deep silence.
-
There being a dispute over a topic of environment, the country is to make an effective law for its sustainable development.
Could you please tell me that is it a correct way to use 'There being' ?
Or There is a different usage of it ?
I would appreciate your responses. Thank you

1 and 3 are correct but archaic. Today we would say, "Because there is".
2 should be "There having been", but that too is archaic. Today we would say, "Because there had been."
