John Edward porta brief d' Entre en nature d' Assise envers G.P. & J.K. & demande envers eux le manor de 64
Process and Pleading
Defendants pleaded as to the manor that another was tenant, and as to the 20 acres that the land descended to two daughters whose heirs were one defendant and the wife of the other defendant.
Plaintiff replied by maintaining his writ.
Defendants pleaded that one defendant and the wife of the other defendant were parceners.
Some argument about the pleading.
Adjourned to Pasch. (1444?).
Further argument about whether plaintiff's reply was proper.
Plaintiff (by another counsel) passed over and replied that tenants (defendants) held as the writ supposed, denying that they held in parcenery with the one defendant's wife.
Ayscough JCP and Portyngton JCP said that plaintiff must answer the other defendant who pleaded that he had nothing except in right of his wife.
Plaintiff passed over and replied that he had seisin until disseised by defendants, who enfeoffed persons unknown to defraud plaintiff and took all the profits.
Ayscough JCP said that plaintiff must add that he sued within the year after he was disseised.
At another day, plaintiff's reply was held good enough, and as to defendant husband's plea plaintiff maintained his writ, denying that defendant's wife had anything.
Defendants rejoined by tracing descent to one defendant and the wife of the other, denying that defendants took any profits from the land at the time the writ was purchased.
Plaintiff (by both counsel), rebutted that defendants' plea amounted only to a general denial of taking profits.
By advice of the Court, defendants (?) had the plea.
Plaintiff argued that the issue was not well taken and defendants should have denied taking the profits of the soil as plaintiff (demandant) supposed.
Paston JCP and all the Court said that the issue was well taken without this denial.
Plaintiff rebutted that defendants took the profits of the soil in another manner.
The Court said that this was no issue if plaintif did not show how defendants took the profits specially.
Plaintiff waived his reply and replied that defendants held the land as the writ supposed, denying that defendant's wife had anything.
Further argument about the pleading.
A clerk said that the same entry would be made when parcenry is pleaded and when joint tenancy is pleaded.
Plaintiff (by his first counsel) too the issue against both defendants.
Issue was joined (sic ad Patriam).

Ayscough JCP and Portyngton JCP argued for plaintiff's position
Newton CJCP: the husband cannot say that he held in coparcenery with his wife: and if there are two parceners, even if one wanted to plead a false plea, this would not foreclose (concludera) his companion from pleading a good plea as to all
