Incipit (First Line) Number of Lines
Brief de Faux Jugement fuit suy d'un Jugement done en l'Court le Roy deins son manor de M. que fuit 29
Process and Pleading
Plaintiff's first writ abated because it stated that a manor court in ancient demesne was 'king's court' when it should have stated 'queen's court'.
Plaintiff sued a special writ in Common Pleas to garnish defendant.
The record was before the Justices by the first writ, which was returned served.
Plaintiff prayed that the Justices examine the errors.
Martin JCP and Babington CJCP said that they were without warrant to do so.
Adjournment.
Language Notes (Law French)
Et pur ceo que brief reherce que l'Jugement fuit done 'in Curia Regis', ou il serroit 'in Curia Regin-', le brief fuit abatu.
Martin JCP: come me semble cest briefe come est porte ne gist my; cel record ne fuit forsque un escrow; jeo di que ceo briefe que reherce que cest serroit un record est faux, l'ou il n'est forsque que un escrow
Babington JCP: mettons que tout les Suitors veulent porte le record que est devant eux, icy devant nous, sans brief duissons nous accepte cel; jeo di que non; rien causera celle estre un record icy devant nous forsque le brief le Roy; le seisir del Court fuit sans garrant, & issint en le Ley il n'est forsque que un escrow
Sjt Rolf: Et Sir, sinon que nous ne duissons a aver cel brief, nous serons sans remedy; mettons que en un common Case, s. un record est remue per brief d'Error hors de Common Place en Bank le Roy
Abstract Context
Commentary & Paraphrase
Judgment given in the King's Court within the king's manor of C. which was ancient demesne
Argument whether a record brought into Common Pleas by a writ that abated was still a record, or was merely an 'escrow' (= writing)
Sjt Rolf argued that he could not have a new writ to the Suitors to bring the record into Common Pleas, because they had already done that and had been dismissed and discharged for this
Martin JCP distinguished between a writ of False Judgment in Common Pleas and a writ of Error in King's Bench. When a record from Common Pleas was removed into King's Bench by a writ of Error, brought by a Justice's hand, it was a record before and remained a record in King's Bench. But when a record came into Common Pleas by a writ of False Judgment, it did not become a record until it came into Common Pleas.
