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.

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.

In the Case of Iseham and Morris Pasch 4 Car. 1. 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. See for this the Lord Zouches Case in Plowd Com. Mich. 29 Eliz. in C. B. 7. In Hill 45 Eliz. B. R. Fitz-Williams Case in Ejectione Firm● it was found That Fitzwilliams did suffer a Recovery to the use of himself and his wife with a Remainder to John Fitz-Williams and with a Proviso in these words Provided That it shall be lawful for him and his wife by their Joynt Deed sealed before three Credible witnesses to alter change revoke determine and make void any use or uses Estate or Estates limited in the said Deed and to limit new uses and that from thenceforth the Recovery shall be to the new uses And it was found moreover that Fitz Williams made a Deed and by it declared That it was their intent to alter change determine revoke or avoid all the former uses to J. 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. And it seems the like Law is of the Uses of a Fine 8. A Fine was levied to A. to the use of A. for life the Remainder to E. in tail the Remainder in fee to B Provided That if B. pay 100 l. that he shall have Tail in fee expectant In this case upon the payment the use shall arise accordingly Dyer 314. 9. If there be Tenant for life the Remainder in see to an Infant and they both levy a Fine and after the fine is reversed as to the Infant yet the Conusee shall have the Land for the life of the Tenant for life because that each of them gave that which he might lawfully give Englishes Case Co. 1.

De finibus levatis Exception against a Fine that the Plaintiffs or Defendants or their Ancestors were alwayes seised of the Lands contained in the fine shall not from henceforth be admitted in the Parties to the fine or their heirs The Fines shall two dayes in the Week be publikely and solemnly read and all Pleas cease in the mean time 34 Ed. 3. cap. 18.

If a Writ of Covenant be brought against the Tenant and a Writ of Entry against the Demandant then the Writ of Covenant must bear date and be returned before the Writ of Entry and this is called the double Voucher 6. That all Writs of Entry must be signed by the Kings Attorney before they be sealed and Fines to the King are to be paid upon them as upon Writs of Covenant The Warrant of Attorney by the Clerk of the Warrants and the Writ of Entry Summons and Seisin are to be returned and filed with the Custos Brevium and the Judgment to be entred by the Prothonorary 7. That in a Recovery with a double Voucher the fine must be sued first to make him Tenant to the Writ of Entry brought either by right or wrong for every Writ of Entry must be brought alwayes against him that is Tenant of the Freehold of the Land demanded at the time of the Writ brought he must be at least Tenant for life or a Disseisor of the Land whereof the Recovery is had for the Estate of the Tenant in tail which is vouched is barted in respect of the Assets onely which are or may be recovered in value end of execution sued by the Tenant against him Plow 11.

As to the Warrant of Attorney and Dedimus Po●estatem take this First That in the suffering of Recoveries the Tenants and Vouchees do most commonly appear in person But if they cannot or will not then they may make an Atturney And in that case there must be a Conusance for a Warrant of Atturney taken to authorize the Atturneys and a Dedimus Potestatem to some to take it in this manner Lond. ss Praec A.
