A minor officer of the courts is often referred to as a "court clerk." Court clerks assist judges in managing court proceedings, maintaining records, and ensuring that legal documents are filed correctly. They play a crucial role in the administration of justice by facilitating communication between the court and the public. Other minor officers may include bailiffs and court reporters, who also support court operations.
"Major" and "minor" judges typically refer to judges who preside over different levels of courts. Major judges are typically judges who preside over higher courts, such as appellate courts or supreme courts, while minor judges preside over lower courts, such as district courts or municipal courts. The distinction is based on the level of court they preside over rather than their authority or importance.
The minor judiciary refers to the lower courts in a judicial system that handle less serious cases, such as misdemeanors, traffic violations, and small claims. These courts typically include magistrate courts, municipal courts, and justice of the peace courts, depending on the jurisdiction. Their primary role is to provide accessible legal resolutions for minor disputes and offenses, often without the formalities of higher courts. The decisions made in minor judiciary courts can often be appealed to higher courts for further consideration.
I don't know what or if there is a term regarding this but I do know that the minor doesn't have to answer any of the questions the police officer asks. You have the right to remain silent even if the police officer has authority. It's not a law that you must answer all questions the police officer asks you.

Circuit courts do hear most of the criminal cases in Missouri, but circuit courts also hear civil, family law, and a variety of other cases. Some minor criminal offenses may be heard by municipal courts, which have jurisdiction over ordinance violations that occur within a particular town or city's limits.
