<< review queue entry 29348 - submitted by 'feilipu' >> Editor: In the prefectures there were three parallel tribunals: i. ... ii. ... iii. The On-duty tribunal (tang chih yuan 當直院) under the prefectural-judge p’an kuan 判官or t’ui kuan 推官. Although “P’an 判” also means sentencing and “t’ui 推” means trial, there was no difference in the function of these two officials. Both were of the eighth rank; only at court ceremonies did p’an kuan precede t’ui kuan. Larger prefectures had the two officials or even more, smaller prefectures usually only one or the other. ---- http://www.humanities.uci.edu/eastasian/SungYuan/JSYS/Archive/SSN06.pdf |
