A Bargain and Sale is a real contract upon valuable considerations for the passing of Lands Tenements or Hereditaments by Deed indented and inrolled within six moneths after the date of it without Livery of seisin or Atturnment of Tenants so as be by Deed indented sealed and inrolled either in the County where the Land lyes or within one of the Kings Courts of Record at Westm within six moneths after the date as we said before Plowd 307.

That Lands in London bargained and sold by Tenant in tayle and the Deed delivered after the same year he made Livery to him the Lands pass by the bargain and Sale Yelverton 123 124. 3. That as the very words Bargaine and Sale are not needful to make some Land pass by way of Bargain and Sale where there is an inrolment So inrolment is not necessary in all cases As where a reversion is granted for years only there neither inrolment not atturnment are necessary Cook 8.93 Foxes Case 4. That the makers of the Act 27 H. 8. chap. 10. did not expect that any Land after that Act should pass by way of Limitation of use save only uses upon Bargain and Sale which they did in the same Parliament allow after inrolment And they did presume that little Land would pass that way for that the Bargaine being in the Post might not vouch by force of any warranty annexed to the Estate of the Land Co. 1.120 in Chudleighs Case 5. That to make a good Estate for years by way of Bargain and Sale for Land to pass this may be without inrolment of the Deed But to make a good Estate of the Freehold or Inheritance of Land by way of Bargain and Sale it must have the Requisites of a Deed. viz. 6. It must be by Writing and not by Print or Stamp in Parchment not in Paper nor upon Lead Wood or the like Co. 5.20 2 part Inst 672. 7.

This kind of assurance by Bargain and Sale thus perfected by Inrollment will as effectually transfer the Land as any other Conveyance and therefore the Bargainee of a Reversion albeit he may not have benefit of a Condition upon demands of Rent without giving notice of the bargain and sale to the Lessee and albeit that A. the Conusee by a Fine of a Reversion before Attornment of the Tenant bargain and sell the Reversion to B and that in this case B. cannot distrain for his Rent until he can get Attornment of the Tenant yet the Bargainee shall have benefit of a Condition of an Assignee within 32.

this That a Deed to lead the use of a fine may be either by an Instrument Poll or Indented and the Indented may be either single of two parts of three parts called Tripartite or four parts called Quadripartite or of more parts as the case is thus This Indenture c. between A. of the one part and B. of the second part Or Tripartite as This Indenture c. between A. of the first part B. of the second and D. of the third part Or Quadripartite between A. of the first part C. of the second part E. of the third part and G. of the fourth part and so to name all the persons except the common Vouchee that bear any part in the Deed Fine or Recovery And so in all other matters as the case is the Indentures are to be drawn up In the last place I will cite Six or Seven Cases in this Point and so go on to the next head 1. In 31 H. 8. Nota That a Fine being enrolled in London doth bind as a Fine at Common Law but not as a fine with Proclamations and there needs no Livery of Seisin upon the Deed and this is a Discontinuance without Livery for that by the custome there this bindeth as a fine and the Customes are confirmed by divers Acts of Parliament Litt. Broo. Case 155. 2. In Pasche 2 Jac. B. R. in the Case of the Countess of Rutland against the Earl of Rutland It was held upon Evidence to a Jury and to them delivered by the Court for Law That if there be an Indenture for levying of a Fine to such persons before such a time to such uses and the fine be levied to the same persons within the same time it shall be to the same uses And no Averment can be to the contrary unless it be by other matter in writing But if a fine be levied to other persons or at another time it may be well averred by Paroll to be to other uses For in the first case the Indenture is directory to the fine and in the other case it is but Evidence Cro. 2.29 3. If a Woman who is an inheritrix covenants by Indenture without the knowledg or consent of the husband to levy a Fine to certain Conusees and Uses in the Indenture mentioned and afterwards the Husband covenants by another Indenture without the knowledg and consent of his wife to levy a fine to other Conusees and Uses in that Indenture mentioned and afterwards the husband and wife joyn in a fine to the Conusees in the Indenture of the wife mentioned In this case the Limitations and Declarations of both the Uses in both the Indentures are void and the Fine shall be by construction of Law to the use of the woman and her heirs as if no use had been declared for the wife alone though she be Owner of the Land yet being sub Potestate Viri cannot limit the use on the one side And the husband who hath not any thing in his own right cannot without the good liking of the wise limit the use of the Wives Land So the one is not sui Juris and hath an Estate The other is sui Juris and hath not the Estate and therefore when they differ in the limitation of the Uses all which they do must be void 4.

It was Resolved among other things That where one is Lessee for years and assigns over his Lease in trust for himself and afterwards purchases the Inheritance and occupies the Land and then levies a a Fine with Proclamations and the Lessee doth not claim the Lease within the five years this Fine and Non-claim shall barre the interest of the Lessee though he who levied the Fine hath the possession by reason of the Trust But this Trust is included in the fine and the Trustee not making claim his Interest is barred thereby Cro. 1.78 6. Nota. It was agreed by all the Justices and by the Prothonotaries That if the Disseisor levy a Fine and the Disseisee in the preservation of his right against the said fine enter his Claim in the Record of the foot of the fine that the same is not any such claim as shall avoid the Stat. of 4 H. 7.

F. and thereupon without more words limit new Uses In this Case it was doubted If the old Uses were well revoked and the new uses in being And after many Arguments it was adjudged a good Revocation of the old Uses and a good limitation of new uses Moors Rep. 683.

See Co. 2. Part 57. Beckwiths Case 5. Replevin for the taking of three Cowes apud Rowdham the Defendant justifies for damage Feasant as in Freehold the Pâ—aintiff traverses the Freehold and thereupon being at Issue a specia Verdict was found Where the Case appeared to be One William Brown Father to the Defendant being seised of this Land in Fee having Issue the Defendant his Son and Heir Thomas Brown his second son and Richard a third by his Will in writing devised this Land to Thomas his son and his Heirs for ever paying to his brother Richard 20 l. at his age of 21 years And if Thomas dyed without Issue living William his Brother That then William his Brother should have those Lands to him and his heirs and assigns for ever paying the said Summe as Thomas should have paid Thomas enters and suffers a common Recovery with a single voucher to the use of himself and his heirs and afterwards deviseth it to the wise of Edward Pells the Plaintiff and her heirs and dyes with out Issue living the said William Brown who entred upon Edw. Pells and took the Distress Et si c. This Case was twice argued at the Barre and afterwards at the Bench and the matter was divided into three Points 1. Whether Thomas had an Estate in Fee or in Fee tayl only 2. Admitting he had a Fee Whether this limitation of the Fee to William be good to limit a Fee upon a Fee 3. If Thomas hath a Fee and William only a possibility to have a Fee Whether this Recovery shall barr William or that it be such an Estate as cannot be extirpated by Recovery or otherwise To the third Point Dodderidge held That this Recovery should barr William for he had but a possibility to have a Fee and as it were a contingent Estate which is destroyed by this Recovery before it came in esse for otherwise it would be a mischievous kind of Perpetuity which could not by any means be destroyed And although it was Objected That a Recovery shall not barre but where a Recovery in value extends thereto as appears Co. lib. 1. Capell's Case That a Rent-charge granted by him in remainder was bound Yet he held That this Recovery destroying the immediate estate all Contingencies and dependencies thereupon are bound and a Recovery shall bind every one who cannot falsifie it And he who hath this possibility cannot falsifie it therefore he shall be bound thereby But all the other Justices were herein against him That this Recovery shall not bind for he who suffered the Recovery had a Fee and William Brown had but a Possibility if he survived Thomas and Thomas dying without issue in his life no Recovery in value shall extend in value thereto unless he had been party by way of Vouchee And then it should for by entring into the Warranty he gave all his possibility Therefore they agreed to the case which Davenport at the Barre cited to be adjudged 34 Eliz. where a Mortgagee suffers a Recovery that shall no bind the Mortgagor but if he had been party by way of Voucher it had been otherwise and here is not any Estate depending upon the Estate of Thomas Bray but a Collaterall and meer Possibility which shall not be toucht by a Recovery And if such a Recovery should be allow'd then if a man should devise that his Heir should make such a payment to his younger sons or to his Executors otherwise the Land should be unto them if the Heir by Recovery might avoid it it would be very mischievous and might frustrate all devices and there is no such mischief that it should maintain Perpetuities for it is but in a Particular case and upon a mere contingency which perchance never may happen and be avoided by joyning him in the Recovery who hath such a contingency And on the other part it would be far more and a greater mischief that all Executors devises should by such means be destroy'd And Hutton in his Argument put this Case If a man gives or devises Land to one and his heirs as long as J. S. hath Issue of his body he by Recovery shall not bind him who made this Gift without making him a party by way of Vouchee for a Recovery against Tenant in Fee-simple never shall bind a collateral interest title or possibility as a Condition or Covenant or the like Wherefore they all besides Dodderidge held that this Recovery was no barr But it was adjudged for the Defendant Pells and Brown Hill 17 Jac. B.R. Cro. 2 Part 590. 6. In Pasch 24 Eliz. C. B. A Feme Sole was seised of a Mannor to which were three Copyholds one of the Copyholders did intermarry with the woman and afterwards he and his wife did suffer a Common Recovery of the Mannor to the use of themselves for their lives and afterwards to the use of the Heirs of the wife In this case it was agreed by the whole Court That the Copyhold was extinct And said by the Court That if a Copyholder will joyn with the Lord in a Feoffment of the Mannor thereby the Copyhold is extinct and so if he accept a Lease of his Copyhold Godb 11. Mich. 29 Eliz. C.B. Godb. 101. accord 7. Husband and wife are Joynt-Tenants for life the remainder to
the husband in tail Remainder to another in Fee and the husband doth suffer a Common Recovery In this case it was held That this was no barre to the Issue in tail for any part for there are no moieties between them And there where the husband alone suffers the Recovery there is no lawful Tenant to the Praecipe and so the Recovery is no barr Co. 3.5 Marquess of Winchester's Case 8. In 25 H. 8. it was held That if my Tenant for life vouch a stranger who doth enter into the Warranty and cannot barre the Demandant and the Demandant doth recover and the Tenant over in value That the Land recovered in Value shall not go to me in Reversion after the death of Tenant for life nor shall the Reversion of the Land recovered in Value be in me in the life of the Tenant for life Broo. Cases Sect. 70. 9. In 30 H. 8. it was held That where there was Tenant for life a remainder in taile or for life and the Tenant for life is impleaded and doth vouch him in remainder who doth vouch one that hath a title of Formedon so the Recovery pass by Voucher then the issue of him that hath a title of Formedon may bring his Formedon and recover against the Tenant for life for the recompence shall not go to the Tenant for life and therefore he may recover for his Ancestor war ranted the remainder only and not the Estate of the Tenant for life and therefore the Tenant for life may not bind him by the Recovery for he did not warrant to him and therefore in this case the sure way is to make the Tenant for life to pray in ayd of him in remainder and they to joyn and vouch him that hath the title of Formedon and so to pass the Recovery for the recompence shall go to them both Broo.

Of a Judgment and the Execution thereof A Judgment is the end of a Suit or rather the Sentence or Decree that a Judge doth make at the end of a Suit which is no more but the pronouncing of what the Law doth set down and determine in that case Secundum allegata probata and this so long as
it stands in force or be reversed by attaint or Writ of Error is final and makes an end of the Suit And here observe 1. That all Judgments are either by Award by Confession by Default or by Tryal Cro. 2.468 2. That a Judgment cannot be depheasanced before it be obtained Cro 1.837 3. That Judgments are much favoured in Law for Judicia in Curia Regis reddita pro veritate accipiuntur et Judicia sunt cantum Juris dicta Judicia in Curia Regis reddita non adnihilentur sed stent in suo robore quousque per errorem aut attinctam adnullentur for Interest reipublicae res judicatas non rescindi et nihil est tam conveniens naturali aequitati quam unum quodque dissolvi eo ligamine quo ligatum est Co. Inst 2. part 360. 4. That if the Plaintiff upon a Judgment dye his Executors or Administrators may not proceed to take advantage thereof or have Execution thereupon till they have first sued out a Scire facias Co. Inst 2. part 288 394. The Method of proceeding in a Judgment is as followeth viz. The Judgment being past the Plaintiff may choose his Execution and to pursue it But he is first to take care that this Judgment be entred in due and legal form which you may see in the Book of Entries Then he must be careful in the choyce of his Execution As for Example If he make choyce of an Elegit it is to be directed to the Sheriff in the form by Law prescribed for which see F.N.B. and the Old N. B. Then the Sheriff having received the Writ must summon a Jury and this Jury is to inquire and return what Fee-simple fee-Fee-tail or for life Lands Goods or Chattels the Defendant had at the time of the Judgment or at any time after And this must be very carefully done the finding must have certainty in it by the quality of the Land as the Mannor of H. a Messuage and 20 Acres of Land Meadow and Pasture in D. in the occupation of J. S. of the value of c. 5. pound Rent c. Then the Sheriff is either at the same time or some time afterward to deliver the one moyety thereof and this last he alone doth without the Jury And herein care must be had that they do it by meets and bounds and that he do certainly describe that which he doth so deliver and that he deliver what is divideable and therefore that he do not divide a Mannor and deliver the moyety thereof for by this means he may destroy the Mannor And if the Sheriff shall deliver too much the Court at the return of the Writ may quash it and order a new Inquiry When the Plaintiff is satisfied by incursion of time the Defendant may re-enter upon his Land without more ado but if he hath received satisfaction by some accidental improvement of the Land there he is to call the party into Court out of which the Writ issued and there to do it by Scire facias Co. 5.38 39. But all Executions are to be taken out within a year after the Judgment else no Execution can be made out without first suing forth a Scire facias Westm 2.45 13 Edw. 1. The Execution upon a Judgment shall relate to the day of the Writs date and the award of the Writ of Execution shall bind all the Goods of him against whom Judgment is which he had at the day of the Execution awarded The Entry of a Judgement may be stayed and arrested if the Court shall see cause That a Judgment may be for a part of the thing only in demand or for the whole That a Judgment may be erroneous and avoidable by a Writ of Error for many causes Cro. 2.303 That after Judgment no Issue shall be taken Cro. 2.126 That when a Judgment is reversed for Error the Party is restored to his first remedy Co. 8.141 The Forms and Presidents of these things vary according as the case requires and being only practicable by Attorneys who are or ought to be well versed therein we will trouble the Reader with them but in the next place shew the several Statutes that speak of the same Stat. Westm 2.18 13 E. 1 That he that recovereth debt or damage in the Kings Court may at his choyce have a Fieri facias of the Lands and Chattels of the Debtor or a Writ for the Sheriff to deliver him all the Chattels of the debtor except Oxen and Plough-Beasts and the moyety of his Land by a reasonable extent till the debt be levied And if he be Ejected out of the Land he shall have an Assise and afterwards a Writ of Redisseisin if need be And this last Writ is called an Elegit which is given upon a Statute also Stat. 32 H. 8. cap. 5. That for all things recorded before the Kings Justices or contained in Fines whether Contracts Covenants Obligations Services or Customs acknowledged or any other things inrolled the Execution shall be within the year but after the year a Scire facias whereupon if satisfaction be not made or good cause shewed the Sheriff shall be commanded to Execution That if Lands delivered in Execution upon just cause be recovered without Fraud from the Tenant in Execution before he shall have levied and received his whole debt and damages he may have a Scire facias out of the Court from whence he had the Execution returnable in the same Court at a day Forty dayes at the least after the date of such Scire facias at which day if the Defendant being lawfully warned make default or do appear and do not plead a sufficient cause other than the former acceptance of the Lands to avoid the said Suit for the residue of the said debt and damages the said Court shall issue forth a new Writ of Execution for the levying thereof Stat. 1 Jac. cap. 13. If any taken in Execution be delivered by Priviledg of Parliament as soon as the Priviledg ceases the Plaintiff his Executors or Administrators may sue out a new Execution against him and the Sheriff or other Officer shall not be chargeable for the first Arrest Stat. 3 Jac. cap. 8. That no Execution is to be stayed upon any Writ of Error or Supersedeas upon it for reversing of a Judgment for debt or upon a Contract till the Plaintiff be bound in Recognizance with two Sureties in that Court in double the Summe of the Judgment to prosecute it with effect and pay the debt costs and damages if the Judgment be affirmed Stat. 21 Jac. cap. 24. That the party at whose Suit any one is in Execution for debt or damages recovered their Executors or Administrators may after the death of the person so charged and dying in Execution lawfully sue forth new Execution against the Lands and Tenements Goods and Chattels of the person so deceased in like manner as if the person so deceased had never been taken in Execution Howbeit this Act shall
