Palace Court

Hist. A court having jurisdiction over all personal actions arising within 12 miles of Whitehall.

• This court was created by James I in response to complaints about the inconvenience of using the itinerant Court of the Marshalsea; its jurisdiction was similar, but the court remained in Whitehall. It was abolished along with the Court of the Marshalsea in 1849. — Formerly also termed curia palatii. See COURT OF THE MARSHALSEA.
