Process and Pleading
Defendant appeared by attorney and pleaded not guilty.
It was found against defendant to the damages of 10 pounds.
Plaintiff had judgment to recover, and had a Capias ad satisfaciendum.
Process continued until defendant was outlawed.
This defendant appeared by a Capias utlagatam.
This defendant said that on the day the writ was purchased he resided at another place and had another trade, and that he never appeared in this suit in person or by attorney, and prayed to be discharged of his outlawry.
Scire facias was awarded against plaintiff.
Plaintiff appeared by process, and replied (maintained) that defendant resided where and had the trade the writ supposed, and that defendant made an atorney one Hil. Term (1443?) by the name comprised in the writ.
This defendant said that he did not reside (where or have) the trade in the writ, and rejoined that he was not the same person (against whom the writ was brought).
Whether this was a good issue remained pending for a long time on advice.
Now by assent of all the Justices Paston JCP said that this defendant ought to have named the defendant who made his attorney, denying that he was the same person.
The Court awarded this defendant to replead.
Language Notes (Law French)
Abstract Context
Commentary & Paraphrase
damages of 10 pounds
Paston JCP: among others this issue is not well taken for this case, if they ought to have the issue by this form, he must say which person he was, who made Philip his attorney in this plea, and give him a name, denying that he (defendant) is the same person who made him (Philip) his attorney.
it was said that if he did not appear at this time, a new Capias utlagatam would be awarded against him, and never afterwards ought he take advantage on any of the aforesaid matters, etc.

Statham Errour 27a, dated Pasch. 21 Hen. 6, may be this case; see, by Newton CJCP: if one be outlawed, and the Exigent is returned, then he who was outlawed can come on the day of the Exigent and say that he was living in another vill, etc.; and upon that he will have a Scire facias against the plaintiff, because the plaintiff is not demandable after the outlawry; query if he could come on another day, etc.; but it is hard for him to have nay other plea except the plea aforesaid, etc., because that plea does not reverse any judgment, because the judgment is good enough, because he who appears now will be understood to be another person
