1876, Edward Augustus Freeman,The History of the Norman Conquest of England, page311:
But it is really the court-baron which represents the ancient assembly of the mark, while the court-leet represents the lord's jurisdiction ofsac andsoc, whether granted before or since the coming of William.
1882, William White,History, gazetteer, and directory, of Lincolnshire, page21:
In later times, if the lord had "sac and soc,” his court had the authority of the Court Leet; if he had the view of frankpledge the suitors at his court were free from attendance at the sheriff's tourn; his court was then in all points like the hundred court, but independent of the sheriff.
1899 February, F. M. Cobb, “Early English Courts”, inThe Western Reserve Law Journal, volume 5, number 1, page16:
The grant of “sac and soc” did not always carry with it the right to hold a court, but frequently amounted only to the privilege of receiving the forfeitures the lord's men should incur in the Hundred court, or possibly to one-third of the revenues of the Hundred and Shire, which had formerly gone to the ealdorman.
