Com. 486 229. An Act of Parliament in the Affirmative shall not alter the Common Law as a man recovering Debt or Damages does not sue Execution within the year he was put at the Common Law to his new Original for he should not have had a Scire Facias before the Statute of Westm. 2. c. 45. de his quae recordata sunt which gives a Scire Facias in such case yet the party that recovers may have a Writ of Debt after this Recovery for that the said Statute is the affirmative 39 H. 6.3 The Statute of 42 E. 3 c. 11. ordaineth that four dayes before the Assizes the Pannel of the Assize shall be arrayed yet two dayes before the Assize it is sufficient to array the Pannel in Assizes for that the Statute is in the affirmative 43 Lib.

A man was restored by Parliament to Land that was forfeited and had a Writ directed to the Escheator to put him into Possession and he returns that he was disturbed in making Execution by A. B. who came and said that he had not notice of the Restitution and by the Justices he is excused till he had notice and the Reason as it seems is for that it is a particular Act 43 Lib. Ass. 29. The Crown of England and the Preheminence thereof by Parliament with all Prerogatives belonging to it was given to H. 7. in Tayle this extends not to Liberties and Franchises of others 1 H. 7.13 The King and the Lords assent that H. B. shall be attainted and lose his Land and because it did not appear by the Act that the Commons assented therefore adjudged by all the Justices that it was no Act of Parliament whereupon the party was restored 4 H. 7.10 Note By the same Reason that the Queen by her absolute Authority may commit a man to Prison and to tarry there during Pleasure as appears Stamford 72. so also by her Proclamation she may ordain that if any one do act against the Content of that Proclamation that he shall be imprisoned and yet see 42 Lib. Ass. 5. where a Commission issuing out of Chancery to seise the Goods of A. and his Body without other process the Suit was awarded void Note The Queen may by Proclamation inhibit that her Subject shall not go out of the Realm upon pain to make Fine for the Contempt if he go c. Fitzh Nat. Br. 85. T. infeoffs W. and A. his Wife in Tail and after it was enacted by Parliament that all Estates made by T. to W. shall be void yet by Fineax and Brian Chief Justice this is void as well to the Wife as to the Husband for they are but one Person in Law and the Wife cannot take but by the Husband But if an Estate had been made to J. and to another Man and all Estates made to J. are enacted by Parliament to be void there the Estate is good for a Moiety to the other man and with this agreed Vavisor yet others are of a contrary Opinion 5 H. 7.34 Dyer 331 332. Note that it was agreed by the Justices that the Statute of Additions made in Anno 1 H. 5. c. 5. shall bind the King as to Indictments and such like as well as common Persons 5 E. 4.32 Com. 236. But see there that an Indictment is specially mentioned which is at the King's Suit and so is as a Name in the Statute See in the Book of Bracton about a Parliament holden by a Lieutenant or by a Protector or by a Deputy and the like See 8 H. 5. c. 1. whereby it is enacted that Parliament Writs being awarded in the name of the King's Lieutenant shall not be staid upon the King 's Return into England neither shall the Parliament be dissolved An Act of Parliament in the time of H. 6. was made whereby all Corporations and Licenses granted by that King were made void It was held that this Act must be pleaded Certain and the Court is not bound to take Connisance of them no more
a Writ of Ouster le main issued forth to the Escheator and the Tenant that had the Land upon a Traverse by him tendered made Rescous If he had not notice of this Restitution he shall not be punished by Fine for that Rescous and the reason may be for that it is a special Act. 43. Lib. Ass. 28. Henric ' c. Vic.

Note That a special Bill against J. P. was put into Parliament 33 H. 6. for Ravishing of a Woman whereby it was ordained that he come before the Lords within a certain day after the Proclamation made by the Sheriff of the County of E. after Pentecost next and if he appeared not then he should be attainted and pay a certain Sum to the Woman and this Bill was exhibited to the Commons after Pentecost which was within the time of Parliament that begun 15 P. before Anno Praedict ' And the Lords gave day to J. P. to appear after Pentecost Anno 1457 which was 34 H. 6. within a day certain after the Proclamation and this Bill was not sent to the Commons as it ought to have been for that the Lords gave a longer time than the Commons gave and after J. P. did not appear according to the Proclamation whereupon he was taken and sent into the King's-Bench and there pleaded by his Counsel that the Act was not an Act for that the Lords had given a longer day ut supra and the Bill was transcribed upon a Certiorari in Chancery and by Mittimus of Chancery under the Seal there was sent to the Justices and the Writ was Rex Justitiariis suis c. Transcriptum cujusdam billae coram nobis in Cancellariam nostram in filacio c. exhibit ' authoritate ultimi Parliamenti nostri c. Confirm versus J. P. Vobis mittimus by which c. And altho it is not an Act of Parliament in Law for that the Lords gave a longer time ut supra yet the Clerk of Chancery made the Writ which was confirm'd by Parliament and it was not so in Truth And Fortescue in the Exchequer Chamber seems that it cannot be intended but that the Act is good for that the King by his Writ certified the Justices that the Bill was confirm'd by Parliament But Illingworth Chief Baron said that it shall not be taken for an Act of Parliament for the writing of a Clerk of Chancery cannot make an Act of Parliament good if it be vitious or void in it self and after Fortescue said that this is an Act of Parliament and he would be advised before he would make void an Act of Parliament and so see if a Certificat under the Seal of the Chancery of a Record there shall be contradicted Vide Com. 232. and 21 E. 3.40 that a Man shall not have an Averrment against a Certificat under the great Seal FINIS
