The analysis of the structure of the court is based on the laws of the old Scottish Parliament, and the main thesis of the study is the evolutionary nature of the provisions constituting the Court of Sessions which, on the one hand, were a continuation of the King’s previous jurisdictional powers and, on the other hand, were part of a wider trend towards separation of central courts from the royal councils in European monarchies.}, title={Some remarks on the origins and role of the Court of Session in the Kingdom of Scotland (1532–1707)}, keywords={Court of Session, civil procedure, Scots law, mixed jurisdictions}, }
