A quick definition of Court of Archdeacon:

Definition: The Court of Archdeacon was a type of court in the past that dealt with legal cases and probate matters within a specific area called an archdeaconry. It was a lower court and people could appeal to the Bishop's Court if they disagreed with the decision. The Court of Archdeacon doesn't exist anymore since it was abolished in 1967.

Also known as: Archdeacon's Court; Archdiaconal Court

A more thorough explanation:

The Court of Archdeacon was an ecclesiastical court that had jurisdiction over cases arising within the archdeaconry and probate matters. It was an inferior court, and appeals were made to the Bishop's Court. The court was abolished in 1967.

  • A dispute over the ownership of a church property within the archdeaconry would be heard in the Court of Archdeacon.
  • The Court of Archdeacon would also handle probate matters, such as the distribution of a deceased person's assets.

These examples illustrate how the Court of Archdeacon had jurisdiction over cases within a specific geographic area (the archdeaconry) and certain types of legal matters (probate).
