among_o the_o most_o high_a and_o scient_a magistrate_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o when_o also_o the_o practise_n of_o the_o same_o shall_v lie_v under_o so_o heavy_a a_o pain_n as_o the_o praemunire_n this_o be_v to_o we_o a_o principal_a and_o implicit_a satisfaction_n and_o those_o statute_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v construe_v to_o extend_v to_o this_o case_n and_o this_o of_o itself_o we_o know_v be_v of_o far_o more_o force_n to_o move_v your_o majesty_n than_o any_o opinion_n of_o we_o because_o king_n be_v fit_a to_o inform_v king_n and_o chancellor_n to_o teach_v chancellor_n and_o judge_n to_o teach_v judge_n but_o further_a out_o of_o out_o own_o science_n and_o profession_n we_o have_v think_v fit_a to_o add_v those_o further_a reason_n and_o proof_n very_o brief_o because_o in_o case_n of_o so_o ancient_a a_o possession_n of_o jurisdiction_n we_o hold_v it_o not_o fit_a to_o amplify_v the_o statute_n upon_o which_o the_o question_n grow_v be_v principal_o two_o whereof_o one_o be_v a_o statute_n of_o praemunire_n and_o the_o other_o be_v a_o statute_n of_o simple_a prohibition_n that_o of_o praemunire_n be_v the_o statute_n of_o 27._o e._n 3._o cap._n 1._o and_o the_o statute_n of_o the_o simple_a prohibition_n be_v the_o statute_n of_o 4._o h._n 4._o cap._n 23._o there_o be_v divers_a other_o statute_n of_o both_o kind_n but_o the_o question_n will_v rest_v principal_o upon_o those_o two_o as_o we_o conceive_v it_o b._n for_o the_o statute_n of_o 27._o e._n 3._o it_o can_v in_o our_o opinion_n extend_v unto_o the_o chancery_n for_o these_o reason_n 1._o first_o out_o of_o the_o mischief_n which_o the_o statute_n provide_v and_o recite_v viz._n that_o such_o suit_n and_o plea_n against_o which_o the_o statute_n be_v provide_v be_v in_o prejudice_n and_o disinherison_n of_o the_o king_n and_o his_o crown_n which_o can_v be_v apply_v to_o the_o chancery_n for_o the_o king_n can_v be_v disinherit_v of_o jurisdiction_n but_o either_o by_o a_o foreigner_n or_o by_o his_o subject_a but_o never_o by_o his_o own_o court_n 2._o out_o of_o the_o remedy_n which_o the_o statute_n point_n viz._n that_o the_o offender_n shall_v be_v warn_v within_o two_o month_n to_o be_v before_o the_o king_n and_o his_o council_n or_o in_o his_o chancery_n or_o before_o the_o king_n justice_n of_o the_o one_o bench_n or_o of_o the_o other_o etc._n etc._n by_o which_o word_n it_o be_v opposite_a in_o itself_o that_o the_o chancery_n shall_v give_v both_o the_o offence_n and_o the_o remedy_n 3._o out_o of_o penalty_n which_o be_v not_o only_o severe_a but_o hasty_o namely_o that_o the_o offender_n shall_v be_v put_v out_o of_o the_o king_n protection_n which_o penalty_n altogether_o savour_v of_o adhere_v to_o f●rreine_a jurisdiction_n and_o will_v never_o have_v be_v inflict_v upon_o a_o excess_n only_o of_o jurisdiction_n in_o any_o of_o the_o king_n court_n as_o the_o court_n of_o chancery_n be_v 4._o out_o of_o the_o statute_n precedent_a and_o subsequent_a 25._o e._n 3._o cap._n 1._o and_o 16._o r._n 2._o cap._n 5._o which_o be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n and_o can_v be_v apply_v but_o to_o foreign_a court_n for_o the_o word_n alibi_fw-la or_o elsewhere_o be_v never_o use_v but_o where_o rome_n be_v name_v special_o before_o 5._o the_o disjunctive_a in_o this_o statute_n which_o only_o give_v the_o colour_n viz._n that_o they_o which_o draw_v any_o out_o of_o the_o realm_n in_o plea_n whereof_o the_o cognizance_n pertain_v to_o the_o king_n court_n or_o of_o thing_n whereof_o judgement_n be_v give_v in_o the_o king_n court_n or_o which_o do_v sue_v in_o any_o other_o court_n to_o defeat_v or_o impeach_v the_o judgement_n give_v to_o the_o king_n court_n this_o last_o disjunction_n we_o say_v which_o must_v go_v far_o than_o court_n out_o of_o the_o realm_n which_o be_v full_o provide_v for_o by_o the_o former_a branch_n have_v sufficient_a matter_n and_o effect_n to_o work_v upon_o in_o respect_n of_o such_o court_n which_o though_o they_o be_v total_o within_o the_o realm_n yet_o in_o jurisdiction_n be_v subordinate_a to_o the_o fo●reigner_n such_o as_o be_v the_o legate_n court_v the_o delegate_n court_v and_o in_o general_a all_o the_o ecclesiastical_a court_n within_o the_o realm_n at_o that_o time_n as_o it_o be_v express_o construe_v in_o the_o judge_n 50._o e._n 4._o fol._n 6._o 6._o in_o this_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o record_n of_o the_o petition_n do_v clear_a the_o doubt_n where_o the_o subject_n supplicate_v to_o the_o king_n to_o ordain_v remedy_n against_o those_o which_o pursue_v in_o other_o court_n then_o his_o own_o against_o judgement_n give_v in_o his_o court_n which_o explain_v the_o word_n other_o to_o be_v other_o than_o the_o king_n court_n 7._o with_o this_o agree_v notable_o the_o book_n of_o entry_n which_o translate_v the_o word_n in_o other_o court_n not_o in_o alia_fw-la curia_fw-la but_o

for_o suit_n in_o chancery_n but_o only_o two_o or_o three_o bill_n of_o indictment_n prefer_v say_v nihilinde_a venit_fw-la for_o aught_o appear_v to_o we_o for_o the_o statute_n of_o h._n 4._o that_o we_o doubt_v be_v make_v against_o proceed_v within_o the_o realm_n and_o not_o against_o foreign_a and_o therefore_o have_v no_o penalty_n annex_v nevertheless_o we_o conceive_v that_o it_o extend_v not_o to_o the_o chancery_n in_o the_o case_n deliver_v for_o these_o reason_n 1._o first_o this_o statute_n recite_v where_o the_o party_n be_v make_v to_o come_v upon_o grievous_a pain_n sometime_o before_o the_o king_n himself_o sometime_o before_o the_o king_n council_n and_o sometime_o in_o the_o parliament_n to_o answer_v thereof_o anew_o etc._n etc._n where_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o chancery_n be_v not_o name_v which_o can_v not_o have_v be_v forget_v but_o be_v leave_v out_o upon_o great_a reason_n because_o the_o chancery_n be_v a_o court_n of_o ordinary_a justice_n for_o matter_n of_o equity_n and_o the_o statute_n mean_v only_o to_o restrain_v extraordinary_a commission_n and_o such_o like_a proceed_n 2._o this_o appear_v full_o by_o view_n and_o compare_v the_o two_o petition_n which_o be_v make_v the_o same_o parliament_n of_o 4._o h._n 4._o place_v immediate_o the_o one_o before_o the_o other_o the_o first_o which_o be_v reject_v by_o the_o king_n and_o the_o second_o whereupon_o this_o statute_n be_v make_v whereof_o the_o first_o be_v to_o restrain_v the_o ordinary_a proceed_n of_o justice_n that_o be_v to_o say_v in_o the_o chancery_n by_o name_n in_o the_o exchequer_n and_o before_o the_o king_n council_n by_o process_n of_o privy_a seal_n unto_o which_o the_o king_n make_v a_o royal_a and_o prudent_a answer_n in_o these_o word_n the_o king_n will_v charge_v his_o officer_n to_o be_v more_o spare_v to_o send_v for_o his_o subject_n by_o such_o process_n then_o heretofore_o they_o have_v be_v but_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v not_o his_o mind_n that_o the_o officer_n shall_v so_o far_o obtain_v but_o that_o they_o may_v call_v his_o subject_n before_o they_o in_o matter_n and_o cause_n necessary_a as_o it_o have_v be_v do_v in_o the_o time_n of_o his_o good_a progenitor_n and_o then_o immediate_o follow_v the_o petition_n whereupon_o the_o act_n now_o in_o question_n be_v make_v unto_o which_o the_o king_n give_v his_o assent_n and_o wherein_o no_o mention_n be_v make_v at_o all_o of_o the_o chancery_n or_o exchequer_n 3._o if_o the_o chancery_n shall_v be_v understand_v to_o be_v within_o the_o statute_n yet_o the_o statute_n extend_v not_o to_o this_o case_n for_o the_o word_n be_v that_o the_o king_n subject_n be_v drive_v to_o answer_v thereof_o anew_o which_o must_v be_v understand_v when_o the_o same_o matter_n former_o judge_v be_v put_v in_o issue_n or_o question_n again_o but_o when_o the_o cause_n be_v call_v into_o the_o chancery_n only_o upon_o point_n of_o equity_n there_o as_o the_o point_n of_o equity_n be_v never_o in_o question_n in_o the_o common_a law_n court_n so_o the_o point_n of_o law_n or_o of_o fact_n as_o it_o concern_v the_o law_n be_v never_o in_o question_n in_o the_o chancery_n so_o the_o same_o thing_n be_v not_o twice_o in_o question_n or_o as_o answer_v anew_o for_o the_o chancery_n do_v supply_v the_o law_n and_o not_o cross_v it_o 4._o it_o appear_v
