Court of Attachments

Read a random definition: Doe, John

A quick definition of Court of Attachments:

Court of Attachments: A court that dealt with trespasses in the royal forests. The judges of this court, called verderers, met every 40 days to hear charges made by the royal foresters. If the case was serious, it would be heard by the justices in eyre. This court was also known as the wood-mote or forty-days court.

A more thorough explanation:

The Court of Attachments was an inferior forest court that had jurisdiction over trespasses in the royal forests. The judges of this court, known as verderers, would meet every 40 days to hear charges made by the royal foresters.

For example, if someone was caught hunting or cutting down trees in a royal forest without permission, they would be brought before the Court of Attachments to face charges. The verderers would then decide on a punishment, such as a fine or imprisonment.

Major trespass cases were heard by the justices in eyre, which was a higher court. The Court of Attachments was also known as the wood-mote or forty-days court.

im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
