A74899 Seasonable observations on a late book intitvled A system of the law: as it was contrived and published by the committee appointed for regulation: so far as it relates to the high Court of Chancery, and the fees and proceedings thereof: Wherein several proposals made by the said committee, are held unsafe and inconvenient; some are approved of, and illustrated; and others supplyed wherein the same are conceived defective: With further proposals, for the better regulation of said court, and more speedy and cheap hearing of causes. And an exact table. 1. Containing the fees now paid to the grand officers and patentees. 2. How much will satisfie the true labourers. 3. What wil [sic] be saved thereby to all suiters in the said court. Unto which is likewise annexed, the memorable case put by the late King James, to the then learned judges of the land, touching the power and jurisdiction of the said court, for relieving complainants after judgements given in the Courts of Common-Law; and how far the Statutes of Præmunire do extend to restrain the said court therein: With the reasons and resolutions of the said judges thereupon: Tendered to the consideration of the supreme authority: and published for the general good and information of all practitioners and suiters in the said court. / By Philostratus Philodemius. Philodemius, Philostratus. 1653 (1653) Thomason E705_4 41,217 70

opinion_n of_o we_o because_o king_n be_v fit_a to_o inform_v king_n and_o judge_n to_o teach_v judge_n jurisdiction_n but_o further_a out_o of_o our_o science_n and_o profession_n we_o have_v think_v fit_a these_o further_a reason_n and_o proof_n very_o brief_o to_o offer_v 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 praemunire_n the_o say_v statute_n upon_o which_o this_o question_n grow_v be_v principal_o one_o whereof_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 the_o praemunire_n be_v the_o statute_n of_o 27._o e._n 3._o car._n 1._o and_o the_o statute_n of_o simple_a prohibition_n 4._o h._n 4._o car._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 on_o these_o two_o as_o we_o conceive_v it_o for_o that_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 out_o of_o the_o mischief_n which_o the_o statute_n provide_v for_o 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 disherison_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 disinherited_a of_o jurisdiction_n but_o either_o by_o the_o foreigner_n or_o by_o the_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 appoint_v 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 the_o other_o etc._n etc._n by_o which_o word_n it_o be_v oppose_v 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 the_o penalty_n which_o be_v not_o only_o severe_a but_o hostile_a 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 foreign_a jurisdiction_n and_o will_v never_o have_v be_v inflict_v upon_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_n and_o subsequent_a of_o 25._o e._n 3._o car._n 1._o and_o 16._o r._n 2._o car._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 especial_o before_o 5._o the_o dis-junctive_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 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 in_o the_o king_n court_n this_o last_o disjunctive_a we_o say_v which_o must_v go_v further_a than_o court_v 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 local_o within_o the_o realm_n yet_o in_o jurisdiction_n be_v subordinate_a to_o the_o foreigner_n such_o as_o be_v the_o legate_n court_n and_o deligate_v court_n 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

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

in_o chancery_n but_o only_o two_o or_o three_o bill_n of_o indictment_n prefer_v sed_fw-la nihil_fw-la inde_fw-la venit_fw-la for_o aught_o appear_v to_o we_o for_o the_o statute_n of_o hen._n 4._o that_o no_o doubt_n be_v make_v against_o proceed_n within_o the_o realm_n and_o not_o against_o forraign_n 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 the_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 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 in_o view_v 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 by_o the_o one_o before_o the_o other_o the_o first_o of_o which_o be_v recite_v by_o the_o king_n and_o the_o
