COURT OF

This article appears in Volume V22, Page 961 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: COR-CRE
COURT OF KING'S BENcH.The principal records of this court are the rolls recording its proceedings and judgments, of which classified lists are given in the Record Office
List
  of Plea Rolls (No. IV.), under the following heads. Curia Regis Rolls (5 Richard I. to 56
Henry
  III.) include all the rolls of the king's court with the exception of a few Eyre Rolls. Of these the Record Commission printed those for 6, 9, Io Richard I. and i John; and also published in the Abbreviatio Placitorum certain abstracts from a portion of the pleas on these rolls made in the 17th century. For specimens see Selden Society volumes, Select Civil Pleas, edited by W. P. Baildon, and Select Pleas of the Crown, edited by F. W. Maitland, who has also edited for the Pipe Roll Society our rolls of the reign of Richard I. From the end of the reign of
Henry
  III. the rolls of the king's bench and those of the common pleas (see below) have been separated. The former, named Coram Rege Rolls (1 Edward I. to 13 William III.), divide from i Anne into two portions, Judgment Rolls, containing pleas between private persons, and Crown Rolls, containing crown business. References to some pleas on the Coram Rege Rolls will be found in the Abbreviatio Placitorum; the complete roll for 25 Edward I. has been printed by the British Record Society.
Assize
  Rolls, &c.Under this head are grouped rolls containing the proceedings before justices in eyre, of
assize
 , of oyer and terminer, of
gaol
  delivery (a few) and befcre justices sent on
special
  commission. References to some of these will be found in the Abbreviatio Placitorum; and specimens in the Selden Society volumes already mentioned. The Eyre Roll for Gloucestershire, 5 Henry III., has been published by F. W. Maitland. The pleadings taken under writs of Quo Warranto during the period Edward I. to Edward III. were published by the Record Commission. For specimens of Coroners Rolls (Henry III. to Henry VI.) see the Selden Society's volume edited by C. Gross. Baga de Secretis (since 17 Ed. IV.) contains the proceedings in trials for treason or
felony
  held before the court of king's bench or
special
  commissioners. An inventory and calendar will be found in the 3rd, 4th and 5th reports.
