Au Moyen Âge, le roi avait le pouvoir d'infirmer les décisions des tribunaux pour des motifs d'equity et il a commencé à renvoyer les requêtes qui lui étaient présentées dans le cadre de l'exercice de ce pouvoir discrétionnaire au chancelier qui, à cette fin, a établi la Cour de la chancellerie. 2, record 1, French, - chancellerie

The office where the chief of mission and his staff work. 3, record 2, English, - chancery
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS
This office is often called the embassy but this is a misnomer. Technically, the embassy is where the ambassador lives, not where he works, although in earlier times when diplomatic missions were smaller, this was usually the same building. Today, for clarity's sake, many diplomats now distinguish between the two by using the terms "embassy residence" and "embassy office". 3, record 2, English, - chancery
