If the Connusor enfeoffe the King that land is discharged from execution Fitz. 266. so all other lands of the King are exempted from distresses and executions Plowden 242. b. If many men be severally seised of lands and they all severally joyne in one recognizance Satute Merchant or Statute staple in this case the connusee may not extend the land of any of the Connusors onely but all the Connusors ought equally to be charged the one of them alone shall not beare all the burthen because they are all in equall degree and in executions which concerne the realty and charge of the land the Sheriff may not doe execution of the Land of the one alone Co. 3. 13. a 14. When the Connusor hath aliened part of his land yet the Connusor himselfe at the Will of the Connusee may be solely charged because he himselfe is the person which was the debtor and which was bound and therefore he and his lands may be solely charged Co. 3. 14. Br. suite 10 12. And as to a purchasor of lands although their said Lands after the judgement recognisance or Statute be subject to the execution yet such purchasors have greater priviledges given to them by the law then the Connusor himselfe or his heires have So that if land of a purchasor be onely extended for the entire debt such purchasor shall have contribution against all the others of the purchasors and against the connusor or his heir but note that by this word contribution it is not to be understood that the others shall give or allow to him any thing by way of contribution but ought to be intended that the purchasor or party which hath his lands onely extended for all may by Audita querela or scire facias as the case requireth defeate the execution and therby shall be restored to all the meane profits and drive the Connusee to sue execution of all the land so that in this manner every one shall be contributory that is the land of every ter-tenant shall be equally extended co 3. 14. But if the Connusor enfeoffee the connuse of parcell of the land and a stranger of another parcell and reserve parcell in his hands now the connusee shall not have execution against the stranger or any other Feoffee for all shall be extinct against the Feoffees but yet against the connusor the connusee shall have execution of parcell which remaineth in his hands If connusor of Statute Merchant or statute Staple be taken and die in Execution yet the connusee shall have execution of his lands and goods co 5. 86. 87. Fitz. 246. b. If the connusor upon a Statute c. be taken in execution and escape yet his goods and lands upon the same statute may be extended for the escape and the action which the Plantiff had against the Sheriff for the escape is not satisfaction for the debts co 5. 86. By the statute of 3. Jacobi cap. 8. no execution shall be stayed or delayed by Writ of Error or superseded for reversing of any judgement in any action of Debt except the party which sued such Writ of error with two sufficient sureties be first bound to the party for whom such judgement is given to prosecute the said Writ of error with effect and to pay all the debt damages and costs c. if the judgement be affirmed and also costs and damages for such delay And therefore if a man be condemned in any court and his body put in execution and after he procures a Writ of corpus cum causa or certiorari to be directed to the Sheriff to remove his body there the Sheriff upon the said Writ ought to return the truth scil that his prisoner is condemned by judgement given against him upon which the Prisoner shall be forthwith remanded to prison there to remaine untill he hath satisfied the Plantiff 2 H. 5. cap. 2. Fitz. 151. e. If a statute be acknowledged to 2. and the one of them after purchase lands of the connusor then it seemeth that the said statute hath lost his force against both see the Register 147. If execution be sued of the body and of the land and after the connusor enfeoffeth the connusee of the Land or surrender parcell descended to him in all these cases the body shall be discharged for by discharge of part of the thing in Execution all is discharged Plow 72. b When the extent upon a Statute is satisfied and ran out by efluxion of time the Connusor may enter againe Co. 4. 67. But when the extent is satisfied by casuall profit the Connusor must have a Scire facias ibid. Defeasance to a Statue made after execution is good and defeateth aswell the Statute as the execution thereupon Co. 6. 13. But note where the Statute of Actor Burnell is that if the Prisors of the goods of the Connusor prize them too high in favour of the Debitor and to the dammage of the Creditor the things so prized shall be delivered to the Prisors by the same price and they to yield the Credtior his debt these Statutes are penall and extend not to any other Writs of execution but upon the Statute Merchant or Staple or recognizance and therefore upon a Writ of Elegit or other Writ of execution upon judgement if the extenders or prisors praise the lands or goods too high the Plantiff scil the Creditor hath no remedy Benl 4. P. and M. Note that when the lands or goods are delivered to the extenders they forthwith shall answer to the Creditor his debt by the words of the Statute and yet they shall not pay the money untill the daies assessed and limited in the extent Plow 205. b. If the Debitor complaine that his goods or lands were sold or delivered to the Connusee at too low a rate yet he hath no remedy Stat of Actor Bur. for in such cases the Debitor may pay the money and recover his lands and good 15 H. 7. 15.
