Term: pares curtis

Definition: Pares curtis means "peers of the court" in Law Latin. In the past, lords were judges over their vassals, and the vassals were required to attend their lord's court to provide justice to all tenants. The vassals were called pares curtis or pares curiae.

A more thorough explanation:

Pares curtis means "peers of the court" in Law Latin. In the past, lords were judges over their vassals, and the vassals of the lower lords had to attend their domestic courts to get justice. These vassals were called pares curtis or peers of the court. For example, if a tenant had a complaint against another tenant, they would go to the court and the pares curtis would form a jury to decide the case.
