oyer and terminer

Judicial circuit established in the 13th century and convening more frequently than the existing eyre. They were established specifically to hear pleas of the crown (cases involving a serious breach of the king's peace) and were often presided over by junior judges or sergeants. They were assimilated into the courts of assizes.
