Viceroys were therefore introduced, but without the judicial powers the office had enjoyed under the Aragonese Crown. In the New World, instead, the <i>audiencias</i> were given a consultative and quasi-legislative role in the administration of the territories.

Their importance in handling the affairs of state is reflected in the fact that many of the modern countries of Spanish-speaking South America and Panama have boundaries that are roughly the same as those of the former <i>audiencias</i>. <i>Audiencias</i> shared many government duties with the <a href="/wiki/Viceroy" title="Viceroy">viceroys</a> and <a href="/wiki/Captaincy" title="Captaincy">governors-captains generals</a> of the regions they oversaw, and so they served as a check on the authority of the latter. </p><p>An <i>audiencia</i> could issue local <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ordinance" class="extiw" title="wiktionary:ordinance">ordinances</a> and served as a "<a href="/wiki/Privy_council" title="Privy council">privy council</a>" to the viceroy or governor-captain general. In this function it often met weekly and was called by the term <i>real acuerdo</i>. An <i>audiencia</i> also oversaw the royal treasury, and when meeting in this capacity with the royal treasurer, it was referred to as a <i>junta de hacienda</i> (literally, "finance board"). The crown attorney (<i>fiscal</i>) also had the right to correspond directly with the crown, especially on treasury issues and <i>acuerdo</i> decisions.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In turn, in the viceregal capitals of Spanish America, such as Mexico and Lima, the viceroy himself served as a <i>presidente</i> (president) of the audiencia. Likewise the governor-captain general served in this function in the various audiencias located in the capital of a captaincy general. In both cases the president had no vote in judicial matters, unless he was a trained lawyer, and only oversaw the administration of the court.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The <i>audiencias</i> with a viceroy or captain general in charge were referred to as <i>audiencias pretoriales</i> ("praetorial <i>audiencias</i>"), or occasionally <i>audiencias virreinales</i> ("viceregal <i>audiencias</i>"), in the case of the former. In the remaining audiencias, such as in Quito, where there was no viceroy or captain general, the president of the <i>audiencia</i> served as the main governor of the <i>audiencia</i> district and the region was often referred to as a "presidency," (e.g., the Presidency of Quito). The viceroy retained the right to oversee the administration of these <i>audiencia</i> districts, but could not interfere in judicial matters. These <i>audiencias</i> were referred to as <i>audiencias subordinadas</i> ("subordinate <i>audiencias</i>", although this did not imply that the <i>audiencias pretoriales</i> had the right to hear appeals). </p><p><i>Audiencia</i> officials, especially the president, were subject to two forms of review. At the end of the president's term, a <i><a href="/wiki/Juicio_de_residencia" class="mw-redirect" title="Juicio de residencia">juicio de residencia</a></i> (literally, "judgement of the period in office") was carried out, which reviewed the president's performance on the job and collected interviews many people affected by the <i>audiencia's</i> performance. Unscheduled inspections, called <i>visitas</i> (literally, "visits"), were also carried out if the crown felt it was needed. As part of the <a href="/wiki/Bourbon_Reforms" title="Bourbon Reforms">Bourbon Reforms</a>, further limits were placed on viceroys and captains general. The office of <i>regente</i>, a type of <a href="/wiki/Chief_Justice" class="mw-redirect" title="Chief Justice">chief justice</a>, was created which removed most of the administrative functions from the viceroy or captain general. Their role as <i>audiencia</i> president became honorary.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> A viceroy or captain general, as the president of the <i>audiencia</i>, was charged by law with corresponding with the <i>audiencia</i> in writing, not in verbal commands.

For example, the first <i>audiencia</i> of Mexico had four <i>oidores</i>, one president and a <i>fiscal</i>, or crown attorney, meeting as only one chamber overseeing both civil and criminal cases. By the 17th century it had grown to two chambers handling civil and criminal cases separately. The civil chamber had eight <i>oidores</i> and one <i>fiscal</i>. The criminal chamber had four <i>alcaldes del crimen</i> (the chamber's equivalent of an <i>oidor</i>) and its own <i>fiscal</i>. In addition the <i>audiencia</i> had sundry other officers such as notaries, bailiffs, and the equivalent of modern <a href="/wiki/Public_defender" title="Public defender">public defenders</a>. The smallest overseas <i>audiencias</i> had a composition similar to the early Mexican one. </p><p>In their judicial function, an <i>audiencia</i> heard appeals from cases initially handled by justices of first instance, which could be, among others, <a href="/wiki/Guild" title="Guild">guild</a> courts, <a href="/wiki/Corregidor_(position)" title="Corregidor (position)">corregidores</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Alcalde" title="Alcalde"><i>alcaldes ordinarios</i></a>. (<i>See <a href="/wiki/Fuero" title="Fuero">Fuero</a></i>.) The <i>audiencia</i> also served as the court of first instance for crimes committed in the immediate jurisdiction of the city that served as the <i>audiencia'</i>s seat and any case involving crown officials. In criminal cases the <i>audiencia</i> was the court of final appeal. Only civil cases involving more than 10,000 <a href="/wiki/Spanish_dollar" title="Spanish dollar">silver pesos</a> could be appealed to the Council of the Indies, and only then within a statute of
