 C> The Real question: DOES A COURT HERALD ASK A VIVAT FOR THE NOBLE
 C> HOLDING COURT FOR THEIR MAJESTIES, and if so, WHERE DOES IT COME IN
 C> AT?

Moriel,

Except in the case of a Territorial Baron/ess holding Court in the Barony they
hold in fief, no.  In the example you cite, the Noble conducting Court is
acting as proxy for the Crown and saluting the Crown salutes them.
