See also:ARCHES, See also:COURT OF , the See also:English ecclesiastical court of See also:appeal of the See also:archbishop of See also:Canterbury, as See also:metropolitan of the province_ of Canterbury, from all the See also:consistory and See also:commissary courts in the See also:province. It derives its name from its See also:ancient See also:place of judicature, which was in the See also:- CHURCH
- CHURCH (according to most authorities derived from the Gr. Kvpcaxov [&wµa], " the Lord's [house]," and common to many Teutonic, Slavonic and other languages under various forms—Scottish kirk, Ger. Kirche, Swed. kirka, Dan. kirke, Russ. tserkov, Buig. cerk

stone pillars in See also:fashion like a bow See also:bent archwise." This See also:parish was the See also:chief of thirteen locally situated within the See also:diocese of See also:London but exempt from the See also:bishop's See also:jurisdiction, and it was no doubt owing to this circumstance that it was selected originally as the place of judicature for the archbishop's court. The proper designation of the See also:judge is See also:official See also:principal of the Arches court, but by See also:custom he came to be styled the See also:dean of the Arches, a See also:title belonging formerly to the chief official of the subordinate court.' Originally, the official principal exercised metropolitan jurisdiction, while the dean of the Arches exercised the " See also:peculiar " jurisdiction. The jurisdictions called " peculiars " at one See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

time numbered nearly 300 in See also:England. They were originally introduced by the See also:pope for the purpose of curtailing the bishop's legitimate authority within his diocese; " an See also:object which," says See also:Phillimore, " they certainly attained, to the See also:great confusion of ecclesiastical jurisdiction for many years." The dean of the Arches originally had jurisdiction over the thirteen London parishes above mentioned, but as the official principal was often absent as See also:ambassador on the See also:continent, he became his substitute, and gradually the two offices were blended together. The See also:original See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office of the dean of the Arches may now be regarded as See also:extinct, though the title is still popularly used, for no dean of the Arches has been appointed eo nomine for several centuries, and by an See also:act of 1838 bishops have jurisdiction over all peculiars within their diocese. The judge of the Arches court was until 1874 appointed by the archbishop of Canterbury by patent which, when confirmed by the dean and See also:chapter of Canterbury, conferred the office for the See also:life of the holder. He took the oaths of office required by the 127th See also:canon. But by the Public See also:Worship Regulation Act 1874 the two archbishops were empowered, subject to the approval of the See also:sovereign by sign-See also:manual, from time to time to appoint a practising See also:barrister of ten years' See also:standing, or a See also:person who had been a judge of one of the See also:superior courts (being a member of the Church of England) to be, during See also:good behaviour, a judge for the purpose of exercising jurisdiction under that act, and it was enacted (sec. 7) that on a vacancy occurring in the office of official principal of the Arches court the judge should become ex officio such official principal. In this way the See also:late See also:Lord See also:Penzance became dean on the retirement of See also:Sir See also:Robert Phillimore in 1875. Lord Penzance received in 1878 a supplemental patent as dean from Archbishop See also:Tait, but did not otherwise fulfil the conditions observed on the See also:appointment of his predecessors. On Lord Penzance's retirement in 1899, his successor, Sir See also:Arthur See also:Charles, received a patent from the archbishop of Canterbury as official principal of the Arches court, and he took the oaths of office according to the practice before the Public Worship Regulation Act. He was subsequently and separately appointed judge under that act. Sir A. Charles resigned in 1903 and was succeeded by Sir L. T. See also:Dibdin, who qualified in the same way as his immediate predecessor. The official principal of the Arches court is the only ecclesiastical judge who is em-powered to pass a See also:sentence of deprivation against a clerk in See also:holy orders. The appeals from the decisions of the Arches court were formerly made to the See also:- KING

Henry VIII. (Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction Act 1532) the Arches court is empowered to hear, in the first instance, such suits as
See also:ARCHIAC
are sent up to it by letters of See also:request from the consistorial courts of the bishops of the province of Canterbury, and by the Church Discipline Act 1840, this jurisdiction is continued to it, and it is further empowered to accept letters of request from the bishops of the province of Canterbury after they have issued commissions of inquiry under that statute, and the commissioners have made their See also:report.
The Arches court was also the court of appeal from the consistory courts of the bishops of the province in all testamentary and matrimonial causes. The matrimonial jurisdiction was transferred to the See also:crown by the Matrimonial Causes Act 1857. Under the See also:Clergy Discipline Act 1892 an appeal lies from the See also:judgment of a consistory court under that act, in respect of fact by leave of the appellate court, and in respect of See also:law without leave, to either the Arches court or the judicial committee of the privy council at the See also:option of the appellant. Under the Benefices Act 1898 the official principal of the archbishop is required to See also:institute a presentee to a See also:benefice if the tribunal constituted under that act decides that there is no valid ground for refusing institution and the bishop of the diocese notwithstanding fails to institute him. After the See also:College of See also:Advocates was incorporated and had established itself in Doctors' See also:Commons, the archbishop's court of appeal, as well as his See also:prerogative court, were usually held in the See also:- HALL
- HALL (generally known as SCHWABISCH-HALL, tc distinguish it from the small town of Hall in Tirol and Bad-Hall, a health resort in Upper Austria)
- HALL (O.E. heall, a common Teutonic word, cf. Ger. Halle)

hall of the College of Advocates, but after the destruction of the buildings of the college, the court of appeal held its sittings, for the most See also:part, in See also:Westminster Hall. For many years past there has been but little business in the Arches court, mainly owing to the unwillingness of a large number of the clergy to recognize the jurisdiction of what they deny to be any longer a spiritual court, and the consistent use by the bishops of their right of See also:veto in the See also:case of prosecutions under the Public Worship Regulation Act. On the rare occasions when a sitting of the court is necessary, it is held in the library of See also:Lambeth See also:Palace, or at the Church See also:House, Westminster.
