Talk:Court leet

message: 1911 Encyclopaedia Britannica says that the court leet survived for formal purposes under the Sheriffs Act 1887 s.40. Halsbury's Laws Direct says that s.40(1) was repealed by the Administration of Justice Act 1977 and s.40(2) in 1998. Unfortunately, it does not give the repealed wording. However, s.23 of the 1977 Act abolishes the jurisdiction of the ancient courts to determine legal proceedings while asserting their continued existence. Does anyone have chapter and verse here? Intrigueingly, the Estray Court for the Lordship of Denbigh and the court leet for the Manor of Laxton survived the 1977 Act. Cutler 10:47, Jan 18, 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: The repeal of section 40 of the Sheriffs Act 1887 in 1998 did not mean that Court Leets were abolished. They still have limited legal standing.101.98.74.13 (talk) 22:04, 15 March 2016 (UTC)

message: What's this page all about?  What country?  What time?  I got here within context, but it's conceiveable that others might come here by accident (searching for "leet", for example :-).  How about an introductory paragraph?  Groogle 08:38, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Schedule 4 to the Administration of Justice Act 1977 is based on report number 72 of the Law Commission. If you look at paragraph 18 of that report it says in effect that the courts listed in Part II of Schedule 4 "do not fall or do not clearly fall" into the classes set out in Part I of that Schedule, which classes include Courts Leet.
The following courts which are included in Part II of Schedule 4 are listed in this article as being Courts Leet:
*The City of London Court of Husting
*The Norwich Court of Mayoralty
In light of what the Law Commission said, could we have an explanation as to why these two courts are considered to be Courts Leet (since the Law Commission seemed to have thought that they might not be Courts Leet at all)? James500 (talk) 23:45, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

message: Not sure the text is clear. At one point the court leet is a type of court baron. Elsewhere the court leet covers criminal matters which were outside the scope of the court baron????94.126.214.30 (talk) 14:17, 23 July 2021 (UTC)
