The village courts dealt with a variety of problems or unsettled arguments, or deciding a fate of any law breakers. Minor punishments were things like: being put in the stocks or forced to wear a mask of shame. The manor courts watched over the power of the lords. If a man in those times let his daughter marry without the lords permisson; he might have to pay a fine or do extra labour on the lords estate without payment. The courts were very influential and encouraged people to follow their laws, no matter how unfair or unjust. There were also church courts, which held trials to people's religious beliefs and behaviour. The worst thing anyone could be charged with was heresy, which meant stating an opinion that was against the beliefs of the church, the punishments were always torture and death.
