Monthly courts had been instituted by Yeardley in 1619 under the civil law ordinance of 1618. In addition to the old ordinance, it was now appointed that the Council of State in Virginia " should assemble four times a year, to hold quarterly sessions [courts] for one whole week, to assist the Governor, as well in matter of Council as of State, and in all causes of importance, as also for redress of general and particular grievances." These first quarterly colony courts in Virginia were held in winter, spring, sum- mer, and fall terms, as the quarterly company courts in England, but they did not meet on the same dates, and they continued in session longer.
