there were many but these are some of them

Ordeal by fire- the accused person had to hold a red hot stick of iron in both his hands and take 3 or 4 steps forward. then his hands get bandaged up and are checked a few days later. if they have started to heal then they are innocent if they havn't started to heal they are guilty.

Ordeal by water- they were tied up and chucked in the ocean and if they floated then they were innocent, if they sunk they were guilty.

Ordeal by combat- The noble who was accused had to fight the person that accused them. if the accused person won they were innocent if they lost they would be guilty and also dead!

If you were found guilty of theft you would have both your hands cut off.

if you were a women who had comitted murder then you were strangled then burnt.

high treason- you would be hung, drawn and quatered.

if you were found hunting illegally then you would have you ears chopped off!
