By the 13th century most manorial lords had established two courts, leet and baron, which met at the same place and whose proceedings followed one another.
Where the lord of the manor held a court leet , the jurisdiction of the hundred was exercised in that court, and the fines collected were payable to the lord.
There were two kinds of manorial court - the court baron and the court leet .
However, there was often an overlap in the type of business conducted in the court baron and court leet .
The whole system was governed by court leets and a set of detailed and ancient laws which are still alive and in use today.
