Leet \Leet\, n. [LL. leta. Cf. F. lit de justice a solemn
sitting of the king in Parliament, L. lis, litis, a lawsuit,
It., Sp., & Pg. lite.] (Eng. Hist.)
A court-leet; the district within the jurisdiction of a
court-leet; the day on which a court-leet is held. --Shak.
Note: The original intent of the court-leet was to view the
frankpledges or freemen within the liberty; hence
called the view of frankpledge. Latterly it has fallen
into almost entire disuse. --Burrill. Warren's
Blackstone.
{Leet ale}, a feast or merrymaking in time of leet. [Obs.]
