The first meaning of the concept that mentions <strong>Royal Spanish Academy<\/strong> (<strong>RAE<\/strong>) in your dictionary refers to a <strong>Justice official<\/strong> which is in charge of executing those instructions ordered by a court.<\/p>\n<p>The notion is used in reference to various positions related to the <strong>safety<\/strong> and to the <strong>laws<\/strong>, especially existing in the Spanish territory throughout history.  In this framework, it was called<strong> King's Chief Sheriff<\/strong> to the officer of the <strong>Court of the Kingdom of Castile<\/strong> that fulfilled judicial and police functions.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>bailiff court<\/strong>, on the other hand, it was an honorary position granted by the <strong>courts<\/strong>.  Other types of bailiffs were the <strong>bailiff of the Inquisition<\/strong>, the <strong>judicial bailiff<\/strong>, the <strong>municipal sheriff<\/strong> and the <strong>cash bailiff<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In Puerto Rico, on the other hand, the post of sheriff contemplates a series of functions that must be carried out in instances such as the Court of First Instance, the Court of Appeals, the General of Justice and the Supreme Court.  These functions are carried out under a series of rules, such as those of Evidence, those of Civil Procedure, those of Procedure for Juvenile Matters and those of Administration by the Court of First Instance.<\/p>\n<p>In Puerto Rico there is a manual of rules and procedures under which the bailiff's activities must be governed.  Let's see below some of their <strong>functions<\/strong> more important:<\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong> process the orders issued by the Court;<\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong> offer protection and security to judges, juries, employees and visitors;<\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong> maintain order while the holding of a judicial process lasts;<\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong> in cases such as natural disasters or any other unusual situation that may put <strong>risk<\/strong> Court facilities, do everything in their power to ensure their safety;<\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong> provide their assistance in the Investigation Room;<\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong> be in charge of coordinating the processes related to the arrival and transfer of the inmates, among other persons who are in charge of the authorities while they are in the Court;<\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong> before the kidnapping order of the <strong>Court<\/strong>, provide security;<\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong> process the locations that come from abroad;<\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong> carry out processes to auction goods, both movable and immovable;<\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong> carry out evictions, expropriations and repossessions.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Alguacil.jpg\" alt=\"Sheriff\" width=\"260\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-47085\"\/>Bailiff, moreover, is the individual who, in a <strong>bullfight<\/strong>, is dedicated to disseminating and fulfilling the orders issued by the president.  Also called <strong>bailiffs<\/strong>They always appear in pairs and on horseback, going through the ring to clear the place.  In ancient times, this tour was very important so that there were no onlookers in the center of the square and thus the bullfight could be carried out without risk to the <strong>public<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In some <strong>countries<\/strong> South Americans, the idea of \u200b\u200bbailiff is used as a synonym for <strong>dragon-fly<\/strong>.  A bailiff, in this sense, is an insect with two pairs of wings and antennae of little extension.<\/p>\n<p>Understood as a synonym for <em>dragon-fly<\/em>, the alguacil belongs to the infraorder of the Anisoptera, one of the two that are recognized of the suborder Epiprocta.  Is about <strong>insects<\/strong> <em>paleoptera<\/em>, that is, they are not able to fold their wings on their abdomen.  They have large eyes and <em>compounds<\/em> (In them many receptive units are grouped and they do not have a central lens, which is why they cannot see at high resolutions).  The bailiff's diet consists mainly of small-sized insects, including mosquitoes, bees, flies, moths, and butterflies.<\/p>\n<p>Bailiff, finally, is also the name of a <strong>Spider<\/strong> characterized by stains on the <strong>Body<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-auto kksr-align-center kksr-valign-bottom\"\n    data-payload='{&quot;align&quot;:&quot;center&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;4473&quot;,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;valign&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;ignore&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;reference&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;count&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;legendonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;readonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;score&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;starsonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;best&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;gap&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;greet&quot;:&quot;Rate this post&quot;,&quot;legend&quot;:&quot;0\\\/5 - (0 votes)&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;sheriff&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;_legend&quot;:&quot;{score}\\\/{best} - ({count} {votes})&quot;,&quot;font_factor&quot;:&quot;1.25&quot;}'>\n            \n<div class=\"kksr-stars\">\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-inactive\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"1\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"2\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"3\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"4\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"5\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-active\" style=\"width: 0px;\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n                \n\n<div class=\"kksr-legend\" style=\"font-size: 19.2px;\">\n            <span class=\"kksr-muted\">Rate this post<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The classical Arabic term waz\u012br derived in Hispanic Arabic alwaz\u00edr and then&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4474,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4473","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-definition"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4473","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4473"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4473\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4474"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4473"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4473"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4473"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
