A quick definition of halle-gemot:

Term: HALLE-GEMOT

Definition: Halle-gemot, also known as hallmote, was a court held in the great hall of a manor by the lord of the manor to settle disputes between feudal tenants. It was also used as a commercial court for trade-guilds and as a public hall for conventions of citizens. Some people mistakenly believed it to be an ecclesiastical court, but this is not true.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Halle-gemot (pronounced hawl-guh-moht) is a term that refers to a court baron, which is an annual court presided over by the lord of the manor to settle civil disputes between feudal tenants. It can also refer to a trade-guild's commercial court, a convention of citizens in their public hall, or an ecclesiastical court (although this definition is incorrect).

  • A lord of a manor holds a halle-gemot to settle a dispute between two tenants over land ownership.
  • A trade-guild holds a halle-gemot to try a member for violating trade-related rules.
  • A town holds a halle-gemot in their public hall to discuss community issues.

These examples illustrate how a halle-gemot can be used in different contexts, but they all involve a gathering or court to settle disputes or discuss issues.
