A quick definition of bann:

Bann is a word that comes from Law Latin and was used in the past to describe the power of a court to issue an edict, which is like a command or order. This edict was usually related to keeping the public peace. The word bannum was also used to describe the edict itself. In simpler terms, bann meant the right to command and forbid. It was an important part of judicial power in the past. The word bann comes from a root that means loud speech and it may have originally meant the order given by a leader in war. Later, it was used to describe an administrative command or ordinance. It also covered the official proclamation of peace in the court and then came to mean the peace itself.

A more thorough explanation:

Bann is a term used in Law Latin that refers to the power of a court to issue an edict, especially one related to public peace. It can also refer to the edict itself.

According to Munroe Smith, bann comes from a root that means loud speech. It may have originally meant the order issued by a leader in war, but later came to mean an administrative command or ordinance. It covers the official proclamation of peace in the court and then comes to mean the peace itself.

For example, in the older Frank sources, bann appears in Latin as sermo, and sermo regis is the king's peace. Extra sermonem regis ponere means to put out of the peace. Another Latin or rather Latinized German word is forisbannire, from which comes our word ‘banish.’

Overall, bann refers to the power of a court to issue commands and prohibitions related to public peace, and the edict itself.
