Japanese term or phrase: 先例引勘
Dear history experts,

This in an example of a service which the Geki provided to other families.

Does anyone know what it could mean?

Many thanks,

Nick

結果、中世後期の正親町流中原氏当主は、三条家などに対して①外記の技能(先例引勘、儀式のリハーサル)、②明経道の知識による奉仕を行なうほか、③広く文筆に関わる業務(和歌の査閲や、漢字の読みを答えるなど)という、外記の技能にとどまらない奉仕があったことが判明した。

English translation:Examination of precedents
Explanation:
The meaning of 引勘 that I found allows to suggest that 先例引勘 means something like "examining (or studying) the precedents" (possibly of legal nature):

引勘
読み方:インカン(inkan)
公験などを取出して調べること。

引: ひく、 勘: かんがえる = ひいて(=取り出して)かんがえること(という意味だと思います)。
