and_o court_n baron_n 15._o have_v travel_v thus_o far_o in_o this_o pen-beaten_a way_n we_o will_v now_o inquire_v the_o difference_n between_o court-leet_n and_o courtbaron_n and_o here_o these_o court_n differ_v from_o court-leet_n in_o divers_a respect_n and_o first_o in_o this_o that_o court-baron_n by_o the_o law_n may_v be_v keep_v once_o every_o three_o week_n or_o as_o some_o think_v as_o often_o as_o it_o shall_v please_v the_o lord_n of_o the_o manor_n though_o for_o the_o better_a ease_n both_o of_o lord_n and_o tenant_n they_o be_v keep_v but_o very_o seldom_o but_o a_o court-leet_n by_o the_o statute_n of_o magna_fw-la charta_fw-la cap._n 35._o 31_o e._n 3._o cap._n 15._o be_v to_o be_v keep_v but_o twice_o every_o year_n one_o time_n within_o the_o month_n after_o easter_n and_o another_o time_n within_o a_o month_n after_o michaelmas_n 2._o second_o in_o this_o that_o court-baron_n may_v be_v keep_v in_o any_o place_n within_o the_o manor_n but_o a_o court-leet_n by_o the_o say_a statute_n of_o magna_fw-la charta_fw-la be_v to_o be_v keep_v in_o certo_fw-la loco_fw-la ac_fw-la determinato_fw-la within_o the_o precinct_n 3._o three_o in_o this_o that_o original_o court-baron_n belong_v unto_o inferior_a lord_n of_o manor_n but_o court-leet_n belong_v unto_o the_o king_n only_o 4._o four_o in_o this_o that_o court-baron_n be_v inseparable_o incident_a to_o every_o manor_n so_o that_o every_o lord_n of_o a_o manor_n may_v keep_v a_o courtbaron_n but_o few_o have_v leet_n for_o inferior_a lord_n of_o manor_n can_v keep_v court_n leet_n without_o special_a prescription_n or_o some_o special_a patent_n from_o the_o king_n 5._o five_o in_o this_o that_o in_o court-baron_n the_o suitor_n be_v judge_n but_o in_o court-leet_n the_o steward_n be_v judge_n 6._o six_o in_o this_o that_o in_o court-baron_n the_o jury_n consist_v oftentimes_o of_o less_o than_o twelve_o in_o court-leet_n never_o because_o none_o be_v empanel_v upon_o the_o jury_n but_o freeholder_n in_o court-baron_n of_o the_o same_o manor_n but_o in_o court-leet_n stranger_n be_v oftentimes_o empanel_v 7._o seven_o in_o this_o that_o court-baron_n can_v subsist_v without_o two_o suitor_n ad_fw-la minimum_fw-la but_o court-leet_n can_v well_o subsist_v without_o any_o suitor_n 8._o eight_o in_o this_o that_o court-baron_n inquire_v of_o no_o offence_n commit_v against_o the_o protector_n but_o court-leet_n inquire_v of_o all_o offence_n under_o high-treason_n commit_v against_o the_o state_n and_o dignity_n of_o the_o protector_n 9_o in_o many_o other_o respect_v they_o differ_v as_o that_o a_o writ_n of_o error_n lie_v upon_o a_o judgement_n give_v in_o a_o court-leet_n but_o not_o in_o a_o courtbaron_n 10._o so_o in_o a_o court-leet_n a_o capias_fw-la lie_v but_o in_o a_o courtbaron_n instead_o of_o a_o capias_fw-la be_v use_v a_o attachment_n by_o good_n 11._o so_o in_o a_o courtbaron_n a_o action_n of_o debt_n lie_v for_o the_o lord_n himself_o becanse_o the_o suitor_n be_v judge_n but_o in_o a_o court-leet_n the_o lord_n can_v maintain_v any_o action_n sor_n himself_o because_o the_o steward_n be_v judge_v of_o the_o time_n when_o and_o place_n where_o this_o court_n be_v to_o be_v keep_v the_o usual_a and_o accustom_a time_n be_v to_o keep_v it_o once_o every_o three_o week_n and_o although_o no_o court_n have_v smith_n time_n out_o of_o mind_n be_v hold_v within_o the_o manor_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o thereby_o extinct_a and_o lose_v for_o it_o be_v incident_a to_o a_o manor_n of_o common_a right_n coo._n l._n 4._o 26._o and_o 6._o 27._o a._n and_o to_o the_o place_n where_o it_o be_v to_o be_v keep_v it_o may_v be_v keep_v and_o hold_v in_o any_o place_n within_o the_o manor_n as_o the_o county_n court_n in_o
