The sessions

In England the sessions of the peace are of the following kinds: petty sessions (now Historical), a court held by two or more justices or a stipendiary magistrate, exercising summary jurisdiction in minor offences within a particular district (a ‘petty sessional division’): replaced by the magistrates' court; special sessions, a periodical meeting of the justices of a division prescribed by statute for the transaction of some particular kind of business (under this head are included brewster sessions or licensing sessions, for the hearing of applications for licences to sell alcoholic drinks); general sessions or quarter sessions (both now Historical), a court held four times a year (in a county, riding, etc. by the justices of the peace, and in certain boroughs by the recorder), having a limited criminal and civil jurisdiction and certain administrative functions: replaced in 1971 by the Crown Court system. Cf. quarter sessions n. 1. ( The sessions, without qualification, usually denoted the quarter sessions.) Quarter sessions were also held in Scotland and Ireland. In certain British colonies the English system of sessions of the peace formerly existed, and was for a time retained in some of the United States.
