But the heraldic colleges are administered separately. Lord Lyon, King of Arms,
is the head of the Scottish College of Arms, and is an actual legal official. I
forget his title, but the head of the British College is a different person and
is not a legal personage. You can actually research cases from the court of Lord
Lyon off law search engines.
