In like Maner and for the same reason if the Father or Ancestor be disseised and the disseisor levy a fine with Proclamation and within five years after the Proclamation the Ancestor dyeth his Heir being within age yet if he make not his entry or claim within the first five years after the Proclamation he is barred Plow f.
son which is Heir to his Brother he shall have new five years after he come to his full age because he is the first to whom the right descended after the Proclamation by reason of the discent which was before them Plo. f. 374. b.

Of Estrangers having no right for any cause before the Fine BUt Estrangers to Fines having neither present nor future right c. at the levying thereof by reason of any matter had before the fine whose right groweth either intirely after the Proclamation or partly before or partly afrer may enter or claim when they please within the time of the prescription As if the Father die seised his eldest son being professed and the younger son entreth and is disseised and a Fine with Proclamation levyed and after the elder son is deraigned it seemeth he is bound to no time Plo. f. 337. a. Dower So if the husband levy a fine of his own Lands whereof his wife is dowable and die and five years pass after his death she is not barred of her dower because her title to be endowed accrued after the fine levyed namely by the death of her husband for before his death she had only possibility of dower and not any right title or interest thereunto Plo. fo 373. And if a Tenant cease one year and then a Fine with Proclamation is levyed And afterwards a Tenant ceaseth another year the Lord may have his cessavit per biennium 20. years after the Proclamation made because his right and title groweth partly before the Fine and partly after the fine levyed that is at the end of the two years of his Tenants ceasser Plo. fo 373. b. Of Estrangers having divers future rights by divers Titles BUt if Estrangers to Fines have severall future rights by divers titles growing at severall times it seemes that they shall have several five years to make entry or claim commencing from such time as their severall titles first accrue unto them As if tenant for life the remainder in Fee make a Feoffment in Fee And the Feoffee levy a fine with c. and he in the remainder suffer the first five years to pass he is by his laches barred of his entry for the forfeiture growing by the alienation of his tenant during his tenant for life because he had present right at the levying of the fine to enter for the same yet if after the tenant for life do dye he hath other five years to bring his Formedon in remainder because that is a new title or right by which he could not have his Formedon during his tenant for life And he had his election to take advantage of the forfeiture or not Plo. f. 573 b. Quaere for there â—atlyn thinketh otherwise because his right to the Land by the forfeiture accrued to him in the life time of his tenant for life If I. S. be tenant pur auter vie the remainder to another for life the remainder to the same I. in Fee and I. S. is disseised and the disseisor levyeth a Fine with Proclamation and the five years pass I. S. is bound for his future and present estate for life But if cesuy qui vie and he in the mean remainder die now I. S. shall have other five years to enter for his remainder in Fee for it then first remaineth unto him by the death of him in the mean remainder and cesuy qui vie for cause grown wholly before the fine that is the State so made before which is another title Plowden 367. h. per Welsh and divers Justices Plo. 367. b. In like manner if Land be given to I. S. for the life of A. the remainder to him for the life of B. the remainder to him for the life of C. and he is disseised and the disseisor levyeth a fine with Proclamation now I. S. for his present right hath five years by the first Saving of the St. 4 H 7. ca. 24. And five years after the death of A. by the second Saving which is of future right and other five years after the death of B. for his second remainder for quando duo Jura in una persona concurrunt aequum est acsi essent in diversis Plo. 368. a. If any man disseise a feme sole and after marry her and have issue by her and the Baron is disseised before marriage or after and a fine with Proclamation levyed first the Baron and after the feme die within five years the issue being of full age the five years past he is thereby bound as Heir to his Father but hath other five years after the death of his Mother to enter for albeit it is but one self same Land yet the Heir hath severall rights thereunto growing at severall times the one as Heir to his Father the other as Heir to his Mother in regard whereof he hath severall times Plow 367. b. So if the husband maketh a Feoffment of his wives Lands upon condition which is broken he levyeth a fine which c. the husband hath issue by his wife and dieth the first five years pass and then the wife dieh the Heir is barred of his entry for the condition as Heir to his Father but shall have five years after the death of his Father to claim c. because it is a title differing from that which did descend from his Father accruing to him first by the death of his Mother Plow 167. a. Estrangers to Fines having neither present nor future right to the tenements in the Fine at the levying thereof but only unto rents common c. issuing out of the same ANd Estrangers to fines having neither present nor future right to the tenements in the fine but to something in or issuing out of the same seem
not barrable at all by any such fine or non-claim As if a Tenant in ancient demesne levy a fine with c. at the common Law of his Land in ancient demesne the Lord in ancient demesne may have his Writ of deceipt and thereby avoid the fine at any time and thereupon his Tenant shall be restored to the Land because the Lord claimeth not the Land whereof the fine is levyed but his ancient Seigniory and services issuing out of the same Plo. 370. b. It seemeth such fines do not bar such estrangers as have Rent Common way Estovers nor any such charge out of the Land for it seemeth that these fines extend only to bind the estate title right claim entry and interest in and to the Land and no profits to be taken out of the Lands nor to take any power given to executors or others to sell the Land Br. tit Fines 123.
