  Noble court - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A royal or noble court, as an instrument of government broader than a court of justice, comprises an extended household centered on a patron whose rule may govern law or be governed by it.
A regent or viceroy may hold court during the minority or absence of a hereditary ruler, and even an elected head of state may develop a court-like entourage of unofficial, personally-chosen advisors and "companions", a position first raised to semi-official status in the entourage of Alexander the Great, based on Persian conventions (Fox 1973).
As an example, ambassadors to the United Kingdom are still accredited to the Court of St. James's, and courtiers of the monarchy still have offices in the Palace of St. James's, London.

 TrouserPress.com :: Royal Court of China
Nashville's Royal Court of China (formerly known as the Enemy) play it hot and sloppy on their independent-label debut, a vivacious seven-song mini-album that fills out Joe Blanton's songs with swirls of wild-eyed guitar to counterbalance his dramatic singing.
The Royal Court may have escaped the bar band wilderness for a brighter, smoother future, but they need to find something more compelling to replace the immediacy they've lost.
Rather than follow the Royal Court down the Marshall stack route, the two defectors got themselves a female vocalist, formed the folky Shakers and released a four-song 12-inch, Living in the Shadow of a Spirit, on a local Nashville label.

 The Royal Court
More than just a hip moniker, however, "His Lordship's Royal Court" was central to an understanding of what Buckley was about as the pioneer of performance art.
Buckley would hold court wherever he went, creating a theater in which both artist and audience and being off stage and on completely disappeared.
His "Royal Court" became a center for post-World War II bohemian society and helped blaze the trail for what later became known as the counter culture.

 Royal Dragon Court   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Long afterwards, on 13 December 1408 (when England was in her Plantagenet era and the Stewarts were the rulers of Scotland), the fraternal aspect of the Dragon Court was formally reconstituted by King Szigmond von Luxembourg of Hungary at a time of wars and general political turmoil.
Along with Szigmond (Sigismund), other officers of the Court were his second wife Barbara Cilli (daughter of Duke Hermann II of Styria) and their daughter Elizabeth, thereby achieving an traditional overall standard of twenty-six members.
Shortly after this foundation, Szigmond was crowned Holy Roman Emperor in 1411 and, although the Court's ancient origins were steeped in pre-Christian lore, Pope Gregory XII was obliged to approve his Emperor's establishment, for the nature of the Dragon is such that its princely tradition surmounts the mundane constraints of denominational dispute.

It was from it that the officials of the princes court sallied forth to gather taxes and rent from the surrounding commotes.
