In Hakodate, where the port was opened to foreign trade, the Ministry of Justice and the Kaitakushi (Hokkaido Development Commission) worked together to establish a court as early as 1874, out of a need for speedy and fair handling of foreign relations cases. In Sapporo, where the main office of the Kaitakushi was located, there was a continuing conflict between the Kaitakushi, who wanted to establish a court as soon as possible, and the Ministry of Justice, which was reluctant to establish a court because it would not be cost-effective. In the early Meiji period, Hokkaido was in the process of incorporating into the "inland territories" of Japan, and Hakodate, which was the opening port, was an exception in that it achieved the early establishment of a court comparable to those in the "inland territories," indicating that the decision to open the port of Hakodate at the end of the Edo period had some impact on the introduction and expansion of the judicial system.
