A quick definition of consistorium:
Consistorium: A group of important people who advised the emperor in ancient Rome. They helped make important decisions about the government and also acted as judges in the highest court of law.
A more thorough explanation:
Consistorium is a term used in Roman law. It refers to the emperor's private council that served as both a general council of state and a supreme court of law during the later Empire.
For example, if a legal dispute arose between two parties, they could appeal to the consistorium for a final decision. The council would hear both sides of the argument and make a ruling based on the law.
