B Estates 4. A man gives land to a Husband and Wife for terme of their Lives diutius eorum vivent the remainer to the Heirs of their bodies this is a taile executed by reason of the immediate remainer notwithstanding the words of the Statute quod voluntas Donatoris in omnibus observetur by all the Justices 35 H 8.

B. Estoppell 8. If a man Indicted of Extortion or Trespasse puts himself upon the grace of the King and makes a Fine and after the party sues him for it by Bill or Writ and he pleades Not Guilty hee shall have the Plea and the making the Fine to the King shall not estop him for there the Entry is quod petit se admitti per Finem and doth not confesse it precisely and therefore no Estoppell Yet B seemes to make the Fine by protestation that hee is not guilty and then 't is all cleere Time H 8. Estoppell 82. A man pleads a Pardon of the King in the Exchequer for alienation without License where the Land is not holden of the King in capite This is an Estoppell to him to say after that He doth not hold in capite 7 Ed 6.

B Estranger al fait 21. Estray If a man takes Beasts as an Estray and keeps them three quarters of a yeer and after they stray from him and another happens on them the first Lord which kept them for three quarters cannot take them again because that he had no property in them till hee had kept them a yeer and a day and Proclamation passed in the two next Market Towns and two Market dayes the one in the one Town and the other in the other for the possession of the second Seizor is good against him who hath no property 33 H 8. B Estray 11. Executions Note by Fitz and the Court If a man recover in a Writ of Annuity he shall have a Fierifacias of the Arrearages incurred within the yeer and a Scire fac after as soon as the Annuity is Arrear and never a Writ of Annuity again for 't is executory and the same Law of an Action and Judgement upon composition which is executory de tempore in tempus and the like And in every Scire fac in which he recovers after the first Judgement he shall have execution of the Arrearages within the yeer by Fiere fac for every one is founded upon the Judgement 23 H 8. B Executions 119. Scirefac 213. By the whole Court in the Common-Bench If two are bound in an Obligation conjunctim divisim the Obligee impleads the one and hath execution of his body and after impleads the other and condemns him hee may have execution against him also for the taking of the body is a good execution but 't is no satisfaction and therefore hee may take the other also But if the one satisfie the Plaintiff hee shall not have execution after and therefore this Order That the Plaintiff upon an Obligation shall have but one execution is intended such execution which is a satisfaction and where both are impleaded by one originall by severall Precipes c. 29 H 8. B Execution 132. Scire fac upon recovery of Debt and Damages the Defendant said that once the Plaintiff sued a Capias ad satisfaciend by which the Sheriff had took his body Judgement c. And there 't is said That a Capias ad satisfaciend is not of Record before the retorn of it therefore no Plea Yet B seems the Plea good by the taking of the Body though no Writ bee returned 37 H 8. B Executions 6. Executors 'T was noted by Fitz and others That in an Action of Debt against an Executor 34 H 6. upon an Obligation of his Testators who pleaded not his Deed and found against him the Judgement by the Record was That the Plaintiff should recover of the dead if hee hath any and for that the book at large fol. 24. is reported further in these

Note T is said that upon an Information for the King which passes upon the issue tried the King nor the informer shall not have an attaint for the informer is not fully party And when the Defendant hath answered the Kings Attorney replies for the King and after no further mention of the informer and therefore neither the one nor the other shall have an attaint 4.

H. 8. B. Attornment 40. T was agreed That where Land is fold by Deed indented and inrolled according to the Statute of 27. H. 8. c. 10. there because the use is changed by the bargain and sale by the said Statute and the buyer in possession and hath no means to compel the Tenant to attorn there he may distrain and avow without attornment Otherwise upon a grant by Fine for there he may have a Writ of Por quae servitia 30. H. 8. B. attornment 29. the end Note That if a man hath Common of Pasture to a certain number or Common of Estovers to a certain number of Carts and with Grant them over they pass without attornment because they are not to be taken by the hands of the Tenant but by the mouth of beasts and by cutting and carrying So see that when no attendancy nor payment is to be made by the Tenant there the thing passes without attornment 31. H. 8. B. Attornment 59. See by Whorewood the Kings Attorney where a man Leases for forty years and after Leases the same Land to another to have from the end of the first Term for twenty years this needs no attornment otherwise where he grants the Reversion as afore there ought to be attornment Quaere and see after And if a man Leases for ten years and after Leases to another for twenty years this is good for ten years without Attornment otherwise if there were a word of Reversion 37. H. 8. B. attornment 41. A man Leases Land for twenty years the Lessee Leases over for ten years rendring Rent and after grants the Reversion of the Term and Rent to a stranger this shall not pass without attornment by reason of the attendancie of the Rent otherwise if no Rent were reserved upon the second Lease for ten years for then there is no attendancie to be made nor action of Waste nor the like to be brought For as B. seems attornment is not necessary but to have avowry or an action of Waste 2. E. 6. B. attornment 45. See by Mountague chief Justice and Townsend That by a Feoffment of a Mannor the services pass without attornment of the Free-holders But B. seems that the Tenants ought to attorn 4. E. 6.

Note If a man let a house and 200 acres of Land for Term of life and after grant the Reversion to another to have the said House Land and Tenements a Festo Sancti Micha●lis prox-post mortem vel determinationem interesse of Tenant for life for twenty one years then next following the Tenant for life dies before attornment yet the grant of the Reversion is good because that the words in the Habendum of the house and land is intended to be a Lease and a Rent was also reserved upon it and so a good Lease without attornment By Brown Sanders and Stamphord Justices Yet by B. Chief Justice t is but a Grant of a Reversion and no Lease but yet the grant is good without attornment because that t is to Commence after the death of Tenant for life so that the Tenant for life shall not be attending to the Grantee nor shall he avow upon him nor have an action of Waste or the like by judgment of the Court. 3.

H. 8. B. conditions 46. the end T is said by the Court in the Kings Bench in Debt upon an obligation to keep without dammage S. harmless where the Defend pleads that he hath saved him harmless t is no plea without shewing how for he which pleads a discharge or saving harmless ought to plead it certain when he pleads in the affirmative Otherwise where he pleads in the negative for if the Plaintiff be not dempnified he may plead quod non damnificatus est generally 37. H. 8. B. conditions 16. 198. in finibus If a man be bound in an Obligation to pay 10 l. to the obligee at Paris beyond Sea at a certain day if the Obligor pay at another place and the same day in England and the other accepts it t is good clearly B. conditions 206. And t is said in debt upon an obligation to acquit save without damage quod non damnificatus est is a good plea for t is in the negative and therefore good without shewing how but where he pleads that he hath kept him without dammage in the affirmative he shall shew how 38.

H. 8. by which he was possessed and distrained for damage feasant the plaintiff said that the same E. 28. H. 8. granted his interest to him he shall not traverse the Grant 38. for hee hath confessed and avoided it by the eldest grant obtained 2. E. 6. B. Confess and avoid 65. Confirmation Bishop charges or grants an office with the assent of the Deane and Chapter and dyes this is worth nothing by some for it ought to be confirmed by the Dean and Chapter And this fell out in the grant of the Stewardship of the Bishop of London betwixt Aldred Fitzjames and John Edmunds of the middle Temple where the Bishop granted the Stewardship of his lands to A. F. by the assent of the Dean and Chapter and died by which the grantee lost the office as t is said because the Dean and Chapter had not confirmed it yet more was in the grant of the Bishop as Misnosmer and the like for the said A. F. was named Etheldredus where it should be Aldredus and so he was misnamed Also there was a default in the Seale B. Charge 58. Confirmation 30 And also the Deed was Quod sigillum nostrum apposuimus which may bee referred to the Bishop onely and not to the Bishop Dean and Chapter And therefore by more to this day the grant was avoided for these causes and not for the other cause and so a grant with assent of the Dean and Chapter with all perfections is good 33. H. 8. B. Confirmation 30. the end If the bishop be patron and the parson makes a lease or grant by deed there the Bishop patron and the ordinary and the dean and chapter ought to confirm if the grant or lease shall be sure otherwise where a lay man is patron in fee and he and the ordinary confirmes this suffices without the dean and chapter for in the first case the Bishop patron hath an interest in inheritance to the Bishoprick But in the other case he hath but a judicial power therefore it suffices that he who hath the power at the time c. confirmes for t is a judicial act But in the other case it bindes the inheritance which he hath in jure Ecclesiae which he cannot do against his successor without confirmation by the dean and chapter 33. H. 8. B. Confirmation 21 Charge 40. Leases 64. Patet hic that the patron ought to have a fee simple and this juri proprio because of the dean and chapter to be joyned with the Bishop where he is patron B. Charge 40. Note that if the King for him and his heires grants Catalla felonum fugitivorum or the like which lie in grant and dies the grantee needs no confirmation of the new King But if it be a fair or market or the like and t is abused or misused as it may be or if it be a judicial or ministerial office or power as to be a Justice of peace Escheator or the like there he ought to have a confirmation of the new King B. Confirmation 19. 29. yet B. seems that the grant of a thing which lies in grant is good clearly without these words for him and his heires But of warranty covenant Annuity or the like there he ought to make it for him and his heirs 33. H. 8. B. Confirmation 19. Conscience If a man buyès land and the vendor executes an estate to the vendee Habendum sibi imperpetuum without words of heires where the intent of the bargain is to pass a fee simple and the vender upon request refuses to make other assurance there lies a writ of Subpaena 32. H. 8. B. Conscience 25.
