Talk:Circuit court

message: According to some other articles, England and Wales also have circuit courts, why are these not mentioned in the article?
2/8/2010: US Circuit Courts description is too ambiguous - it cites several aspects over which the courts USED TO have jurisdiction, but is entirely unclear about their current jurisdiction.  There are also several theoretical links between the Supreme Court and Circuit Courts in the US that are not covered in this article (e.g. Songer, Segal, and Cameron 1994, etc).  The section on circuit courts in the UK is just a list of trivia facts about it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.3.189.17 (talk) 20:28, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Circuit courts in the UK

message: The oldest mentioning of a "circuit judge" is in the Old Testament of the Judeo-Christian Bible:
(1 Samuel 7:15 KJV)  
"And Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life."
(1 Samuel 7:16 KJV)  
"And he went from year to year in circuit to Bethel, and Gilgal, and Mizpeh, 
and judged Israel in all those places."'''
(1 Samuel 7:17 KJV)  
"And his return was to Ramah; for there was his house; 
and there he judged Israel; and there he built an altar unto the LORD."
The Circuit Court form of government is superior to a hierarchy form of government because it emphasizes the equality of the leaders and judges with the common citizens :
(Deuteronomy 17:18 KJV)  
"And it shall be, when he sitteth upon the throne of his kingdom, 
that he shall write him a copy of this law in a book out of that which is before the priests the Levites:"
(Deuteronomy 17:19 KJV)  
"And it shall be with him, and he shall read therein all the days of his life: 
that he may learn to fear the LORD his God, 
to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them:"
(Deuteronomy 17:20 KJV)  
"That his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, 
and that he turn not aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left: 
to the end that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he, and his children, in the midst of Israel."
Hierarchy forms of government encourage the leaders and judges to consider themselves "ABOVE" their fellow citizens, which denies the fact of human equality.
Circuit Court imagery encourages the Judges to consider themselves to be "AMONG, NOT ABOVE" their fellow citizens, which is to remind the Judges of their human equality with those they are settling disputes for.

It is possible that symbolism in the Old Testament book of Ezekiel is representing smaller circuit courts being governed by larger courts when it speaks of "the wheels within a wheel" :
(Ezekiel 1:16 KJV)  
"The appearance of the wheels and their work was like unto the colour of a beryl: 
and they four had one likeness: 
and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel."

message: What about courts in places like Russia for example? Right now, the article focuses on the British isles and the US, which is a bit meagre. 82.217.116.224 (talk) 11:06, 20 November 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  "Home Circuit" listed at [[Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion|Redirects for discussion]] 

message: In view of the above RfD from two years ago, I've had a look at which other circuits redirect here, and also those that don't. I have found that Home Circuit, Home circuit, Midland Circuit, North Eastern Circuit, North Wales circuit, Wales Circuit and Western Circuit all redirect to Circuit court#England and Wales; Northern Circuit has its own article (to which Northern circuit is a redir), but others redirect to different articles. Midland and Oxford Circuit redirects to Crown Court#Circuits; Oxford Circuit and Oxford circuit both redir to Assizes#Circuits; but South Eastern Circuit redirs to Circuit Court (Ireland) (as does Dublin Circuit Criminal Court) whereas South-eastern Circuit redirs to Circuit judge (England and Wales).
Except in the case of Northern Circuit, is it worth trying for consistency? If so, which single article should be the destination? Discussing here before I start some WP:RFDs, also notifyinging the participants in the previous RfD (, , , , ) in case they are interested. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 10:22, 30 October 2022 (UTC)
