The King's Bench

The King's Bench is a historic court in England responsible for handling serious legal issues, especially those involving the law's authority and government actions. It primarily deals with criminal cases, civil disputes, and issues related to the monarchy’s rights. Originating in the medieval period, it has evolved into part of the High Court today, continuing to serve as a key venue for important legal decisions. The court’s role is to ensure justice is fairly administered, upholding the rule of law while maintaining the monarch’s legal authority within the judicial system.
