Tips
history
From 《史记·李将军列传》: 大将军使长史急责广之幕府对簿 — General Wei Qing sends an aide to summon Li Guang to respond to charges on the written dossier (簿). The original 对簿 meant 'to answer to the document'; 公堂 was added later, when the idea settled into 'facing each other in court.'
mistakes
Watch the pronunciation: 簿 is bù, not bó. Also don't write 对 as 兑. The meaning is 'to face each other across the court document,' not 'to duel.'
