for it is a maxim Nullum tempus occurrit Regi Peryam If the Freehold be in the Alien untill office found Trespass if a trespass be committed who shall punish it for he shall have no Action Fenner That is true and so it is of a Monk if he be a disseisor Monk and yet the freehold is in him Shuttelworth And so it is of a person atteinted Atteynted person and yet before office found the freehold is not in the Queen Rodes It is Dyer 11 Eliz. fol. 283. Feoffment to use If a man enfeoffee an Alien and a Denison to his use that the Queen shall have the moity whereby it seemeth that the confirment is voyd Anderson I hold this rule for certain that in every feoffment there is feoffer and feoffee and if there be a feoffee he must of necessity take wher by I think the confirmation is good Rodes Is this case hanging in this Court Fenner No Sir Windham Wherefore then doe you move it in this Court And afterwards the question being demanded of Shuttelworth by divers Barristers he made answer Truly in my opinion it is not in the Queen before office found and therefore I think the confirmation is good Quaere 5. AN Attorney of the Common Pleas brought an action of debt against another Misdemeaner whereupon he was arrested in the Country and when he came to London the Attorney caused him to be arrested in London for the same debt and this was shewed to the Court and the Attorney called to whom Anderson said if a man be sued here for a debt and after be arrested in another Court for the same debt the penaltie is fine and imprisonment and that is both the law and the custom of this Court wherefore then have you done this surely we will send you to the Fleet for your labour Attorney I beseech you my Lord consider my estate Anderson I have well considered it and that is that you shall goe to the Fleet and therfore Warden of the Fleet take him to you Windham We will punish such gross faults in you more severely than in others because you are an Attorney here and your fault is so much the greater by how much you are skilful in the law and customs of this Court wherefore you shall goe to the Fleet. De Term. Mic. Anno xxix Eliz. 1. IN the case of Sellenger Annuity it was said by Anderson and agreed by the Court that if a man grant an Annuity out of Land and hath nothing in the Land that yet this shall be good to charge the Grantor in a Writ of Annuity and in the same case it was allso agreed by the Court that if a man grant an Annuity to a Woman who takes a Husband and after Arrerages do incur and the Wife dye so that the Annuity is determined that the Husband shall have an Action of debt for the Arrerages by the Common Law Shuttleworth This is not remedied by the Statute of Arrerages of Rents and then at the Common Law it is but a thing in Action Peryam An Annuity is more than a thing in Action Windham He may grant it over and so the opinion of the whole Court was that debt was maintenable 2. AT the same day it was said by Anderson Executor and not gainsaid that if an Executor plead ne unque administer come executor yet afterwards he may take the Administration upon him and well enough be Executor 3. IN a Replevin by Bosse against Hawtrey Triall by provise they were at Issne Termino Mic. An. 28. 29. And Bosse had a venire facias in Termino Mic. retournable in Termino Hill and after in Termino Hill took an alias retournable in Termino Pasch and so awarded it in the Roll of Mic. to the intent that the matter should not be tried at the Assises in Kent and thereupon Hawtrey which was Avowant moved the Court and prayed expedition whereupon the Court caused the Roll to be brought in and notwithstanding that it was a Roll of Mic. Term yet because it was awarded the same Term they mended the Roll and awarded the alias retournable the same Term of Hill 4. WYlgus brought an Action of Trespass against Welche quare clausum fregit Travers Welche said Trin. 28. Eliz. rot 537. that I. W. was seised and enfeoffed May and so conveyed a title to himself the Plantif replyed that A. his Auncestor was seised and so the Land descended to him Absque hoc that I. W. was seised and upon this Issue the Court was moved Anderson the seisin is not traversable but where it is materiall and therefore clearly the Traverse is not good but Fenner cited a book in 2 Edw. 6. that the Travers shall be good but he stood not much upon it Snagg 27 Hen. 8. 4. Bro. pleadings 1. is contrary but the opinion of all the Court clearly was that the Travers is not good 5. A Man makes a Feoffment in Fee to the use of himself and his Wife VVast alterius eorum diutius viventis absque impeticione vasti durantibus vitis ipsorum the Husband dies if the Wife shall hold without impeachment of wast or no was moved by the Serjeants And the opinion of all the Court was that she shall not be impeached of Wast because of the severance but otherwise if it had been Joyntly 6. FUlwood brought an action upon the case against Fulwood Action upon 〈◊〉 case and declared that whereas a motion of mariage was between the Defendant and a Widow in London in consideration that the Plaintif should give his assent that the Father of those Fulwoods should convey to the Defendant all his Lands and Chattells the Defendant promised to pay the Plaintif such a sum of money as their Father should assign Ac licet that the Plaintif had given his consent and that their said Father had assigned him to pay 37. l. yet the Defendant c. and he pleaded non assumpsit and it was found for the Plaintif and now Fenner spoke in arrest of Judgement for four causes First there is no consideration for the declaration is assensum suum daret so that he is at liberty to give his assent or no and so no perfect consideration The second is ac licet the Plaintif c. and doth not say in facto that he gave his assent The third is that he doth not say that he gave his assent when the Father had those Lands and Chattells The fourth is that in consideration the conveyance should be made to the Defendant and it appeareth that it was made to the Defendant and his Wife Shuttleworth To the contrary we have alleged in deed that he gave his assent and that is as much as if he had said in consideration that he gave his assent And allthough that the conveyance be to both yet it is in tayl to them and so the inheritance given to both And therefore that

Wife sued execution and the Debtor upon this release brought an audita querela and adjudged against him because of covin but there is a third matter which makes an end of all for it is found that Sir John Pagginton entred upon Goodale and Goodale re-entred and then the Defendant entring is a Trespassor to the Plaintiff because no title is found for him to make his entrie lawfull Finner I thinke no payment ought to be made to the heir in this case no more than it shall be where a man is bound by obligation to pay a lesser sum to the Obligee his Heires or Executors there payment shall be to the Executor and not to the Heir And I think in this case Conusee by Starute grants over his estate that the payment ought to be to the Feoffee for that that he is to have the losse for by 22. E. 3. 15. E. 3. if a man have exeution by Statute and grant his estate over if the Conusor will pay the money and have the land again it shall be paid to the Grantee and not to the Conusee But I am cleer in opinion that for another cause judgement ought to be given against the Defendant for the words of the condition are sub conditione That if Sir John Pagginton pay 50. l. to the Heires Executors or Administrators of W. That the said Deed of Feoffment Liveri● cannot be void without a reentire and the seizin upon that given shall be void And I think it is no condition for livery of seisin may not be void without a re-entry as 15. H. 7. is but for the matter of the Covin it seems to me that if the Heir may receive the money that shall not prejudice for if he have right to have the money who hath any wrong if he give part of that to another Clinch The payment of the money to the Heire is good for when a man departeth with his estate it is in his dispose to annexe what condition he will and for that when he appointeth to the Heires Executors or Administrators payment to any of them is good And he said it was a good condition Possession a good title against all which have not a better and no fraud for the duty was due to the Heir but for the last matter that is not to be cured for when one title is found for the Defendant and it is found that the outed one that had elder possession his entry is torcious Popham I think the condition is not good for whensoever you will have an estate of inheritance to cease Estates beginning by liverie and otherwise you ought to have apt words to make it cease for an estate which beginneth by liverie may not cease by words but it is otherwise of an estate that beginneth by contract without any liverie and seisin but in the point of fraud I am of opinion with my brother Gawdy Fraudulent recoveries are void although they be by a good title For fraud in our law is not favoured albeit the partie have right for if he that hath right is of covin with one to disseise him that is in possession to the intent that he will recover against him now this recoverie albeit he hath right will doe no good to him but the last makes all without question and so judgement was given for the Plaintiff 112. SAyer brought an Eejectione firme against Hardy A Lease determinable made good for the insensibility of words and a speciall verdict was found to wit that a Lease was made to a widow for 40. yeers sub hac tamen conditione quod si ipsa tam diu sola fuerit inhabitabit in the same house the woman continued sole all her life and dwelt all her time in the said house and dyed within the term the question was whether the term be determined or not and whether the words make a condition or limitation Morgan It is no condition and cited Colthursts case but if it were a condition here is no breach alleged for the death is the Act of God which no man may resist and the Act of God may not prejudice any man Bromly I think the word makes a Limitation and not a Condition and he tited the Lord Barkly's case Gawdie If a Lease be made to a feme sole if she so long live sole and continue unmarried now if she dye the Lease is determined Differences between conditions and limitations and per Litl If an Abbot make a lease for 40. yeers if he so long be Abbot if he after be deposed or dye the lease is determined So is it of a lease made by the Husband if he so long continue Husband of such a woman but in this case the words are insensible and for that it is neither condition nor Limitation vide 3. E. 6. Dyer 65. 66. Popham Clinch It is neither Condition nor limitation but if this word si had been omitted it would have been a condition Or if the words sub conditio●● quod had been omitted it would have been a limitation And if I make a Lease for 40. yeers if the Lessee dwell upon the thing let during the term there if the Lesse dye the Lease is determined for that the point of limitation goeth to all the term but if it be a lease for 40. yeers if the Lessee dwell upon that during his life there if he dye the Lease continueth So they all concluded that the terme yet continueth per quod judicium intretur pro quer 113. IN the case between Walter and Walter for 20. l. per annum to be paid to a Justice of Wales for the Office of the Clerk of Fines Assumpsit in consideration of an Office sold For a Justice of Wales may by Prescription take notice of Fines of Land lying in certain Shires in Wales and this 20 l. per annum was to be payd by the Servant to the Master for the sayd Office for the Clerks Fee was v. s iiij d. of every Fine The Action for not paying the xx l. Mistr●all was brought and tried in comitatu Gloucest And therefore Mr. Attorney said it was mis-tryed for properly it ought to be tryed in one of the three Shires in Wales John Walter I think the Tryall good for 30 Eliz. there was a Case in this Court between Beveridge and Conney Reveridge against Conney And the case was that a Lease was made in the County of Northampton of lands in the County of Cambridge and the Lessee was bound by Obligation to pay his rent in the County of Northhampton The Defendant pleaded payment in the County of Cambridge and this was found in the County of Northampton Gawdy This is a good Case let us see the Record Walter You shall Sir But the Court seemed to incline against Walter Cook said that in this case the Assumption is voyd per le Statute de 5 Ed. 6. cap. 16. For it is not

say no more now this is no Condition And here all the sense comes in after the words of Covenant and these words are the words of Sir M. B. And for that it seemeth no Condition for if the words had been And it is provided by Sir M. B. there it is clear no Condition But if in a Lease for yeares be words and the Lessee do provide that if the Rent be behind that then the Lessor shall re-enter there I agree that this makes a Conditon And in the case put by my Brother Williams a Lease made provisum est quod non licebit to the Lessor to grant over upon pain of forfeiture there is a good Condition But otherwise it shall be if sub poena forisfacturae were omitted Fenner I think it is a a Condition for all the words put together explain the meaning of the parties as if he had said upon Condition And the Lessee doth Covenant and grant and none will deny but that this is a Conditidition Clinch seemed that it is no Conditon for the words may not be used as a Covenant and allso as a Condition As where a grant is by Deed by words of Dedi concessi confirmavi the Deed may be used as a Grant or confirmation at the Election of the party But it cannot be used in both sorts Popham I think that the Proviso as it is here placed will make a Condition and yet I will agree that a Proviso shall be sometimes taken for a Condition and sometimes for Explanation and sometimes for a Covenant and sometimes for an Exception and sometimes for a Reservation and it is taken for a Condition As if a man Lease Land provided that the Lessee shall not Alien without the Assent of the Lessor sub poena forisfactura here it is a Condition and if I have two Mannors both of them named Dale and I Lease to you my Mannor of Dale Provided that you shall have my Mannor of Dale in the Occupation of I. S. here this Proviso is an Explanation what Mannor you shall have and if a man Lease a house and the Lessee Covenanteth that he will that maintain Provided allwaies that the Lessor is contented to find great Timber here this is a Covenant and if I Lease to you my Messuage in Dale provided that I will have a Chamber my self here this is an Exception of the Chamber and if I make a Lease rendring Rent at such a Feast as I. S. shall name Provided that the Feast of St. Michael shall be one here this Proviso is taken for a Reservation and in our case if the words had been provided allwaies that the Donees shall cut down no Trees and the Lessee doth Covenant he will not fell any here every one will agree that it is a Condition and allso a Covenant And in this case in my opinion this tant amounts Serjeant Williams and Cook Attorney for the Plaintif Atkinson and Tanfield for the Defendant 28. LAssels the Father S●ander brought an Action upon the case against Lassels the Son for words viz. he quendam Thomam Lassels fratrem ejusdem Def. innuend stole a Mare and you innuend querent knowing the same conveyed her into the Fenns to my Brother B. his house Clinch and Gawdy seemed the Action maintainable Fenner econtra 29. A Man was indicted for stealing of a hat and a band and other such things Indictment And the Prisoner said that he was before that time indicted for goods stolen the same day and time and acquitted Gawdy said he may not be severally indicted for goods stolen at one time As if a man steal a dozen of silver spones he may not be indicted for two in one Indictment and for other two in another sic de singulis Clinch accord Fenner Yes truly for it was the case of Thomas Cobham the which was indicted for goods taken in two shipps and acquitted and after condemned for other goods taken at the same time 30. PEarce brought an Action upon the case against Barker Prescription by a Copy-holder and delared how within the Mannor of Dale time out of mind there had been divers Copyholders and during the same time there hath been a usage within the said Mannor That every Copyholder for every Acre of Land shall have Common in such a Wast of the Lords for two Beasts And shewed how the Plaintif is possessed of twenty Acres and by reason of those ought to have Common for forty Beast● And there hath the Defendant being Lessee for years of the same Mannor one Conigray within the same Wast by which the Conies have so digged the ground that his Beasts cannot have Common as they were wont to have Fenner A Copyholder may not prescribe but in right of his Lord but now the Lord pro tempore is party to the action and whether this will alter the case or not I doubt Glanvile Albeit the Copyholder may not prescribe but in right of his Lord yet by way of usage as this case is it hath been adjudged that he may make his title 31. A Ruudell was heretofore arraigned upon an Indictment of willfull Murder for the death of one Parker Indictment and was found not guilty of Murder but guilty of Manslaughter for which he pleaded the generall pardon de 35 El. And the Queens Attorney alleged That in the sayd generall pardon there is an exception of all persons being in prison by the commandement of one of the Privy-counsell and said that the sayd Arundell was committed by the Lord Chamberlain for suspition of the sayd Felony and for the same in prison at the time of the Parliament Commitment and so a person exempted To which it was sayd by the Defendant that long time before the sayd Parliament and after the sayd commitment by the Lord Chamberlain there went out of this Court a Corpus eum causa by force of which he was sent into this Court with the cause of his commitment and was for the sayd offence committed by this Court to the Marshalsey and there was remaining at the time of the Parliament by force of the commitment of this Court and it seemed by the better opinion of the Court if a man be committed by a Privy-counsellor and removed by Habeas corpus and committed by this Court he shall be now sayd imprisoned by commitment of this Court and not of the Privy-counsellor 32. STaugnton brings a Writ of Error against Newcomb upon a Judgement given in Debt in the Common-place Error and the first Error assigned was for that the originall Writ was xx l. and all the mean Process were so likewise but when the Defendant appeared to the Exigent the entry was quod defendens obtulit se in placit● debit● decem librarum where it ought to be xxl. Dodderidge I think it shall be amended for it is the misprision of the Clerk and to prove that he cited 37 Hen. 6. 44. Ed. 3. 18. But upon
