Quarter Sessions

Giải nghĩa:

/kwɔrtər sɛʃənz/ – Phrase


Definition: tòa án xét xử hằng quý.

A more thorough explanation: Quarter Sessions refers to a historical term used in English law to describe a local court that traditionally met four times a year to handle criminal and civil cases within a specific jurisdiction. These sessions were presided over by justices of the peace and dealt with a wide range of legal matters, including minor criminal offenses, licensing issues, and some civil disputes. The Quarter Sessions system has largely been replaced by modern magistrates’ courts and other judicial bodies in the United Kingdom.

Example: The defendant was indicted and tried at the Quarter Sessions for the alleged theft of the property.
