Assizes

Courts sitting regionally, on circuit. Can try felonies, but hence are always required to have one of the 10 (later 12) judges of King's Bench? , Common Pleas? , or Exchequer in order to be able to give a death penalty in the felony case.

Impossible to know which judge will be sitting on the circuit, which complicates appeals- do you prepare under the precedents of King's Bench or Common Pleas?
