Definition of: Star Chamber

A former English court which met in secret and dispensed justice without jury, and which was noted for its arbitrary and inquisitorial proceedings: abolished by Parliament in 1641; hence, any arbitrary or secret tribunal. [Prob. because it met in Westminster Palace in a chamber whose ceiling was decorated with stars]
