Criminally

Criminally
the court could hear cases of treason and murder, and it is in cases where there is no direct evidence, where it is the word of one against the other, that trial by combat could be used. Such trials were complicated affairs, growing from such cases to also include disputes over heraldic rights and over matters of honor.
