Concerning Subpoena's Ad audiendum Judicium Ordo Curiae WHEREAS the Right Honourable the Lord Keeper being informed of sundry Abuses Vide postea in the untimely and disorderly setting down of the Causes of Hearing in this Court and the obtaining of Subpoena's Ad audiendum Judicium thereupon whereby ancient Causes were stopt back from hearing and other Causes thrust in to the prejudice of the other Clyents and scandal to the Court the six Clerk towards the said Causes never being made acquainted therewith For reformation whereof the then Lord Keeper did Order and Require That hereafter it should be carefully observed that no Subpoena should be made Ad audiendum Judicium for any Cause of hearing whatsoever before the Clerk that makes the same Writ have a Note under the Hand of the six Clerk that is Attorny and under the Hand of the Register and in their absence under the Hand of their sufficient known Deputies to warrant the same No Subpoena's to be made Ad audiendum judicium before the Clerk that makes the same Writ have a Note under the Hand of the six Clerk and of the Register to warrant the same And if any such Clerk should after presume to offend therein then the said Clerk was to stand committed for his wilful contempt Forasmuch as the Right Honourable the Lord Keeper was this day informed by the said six Clerk that of late the said Order had been neglected in divers Subpoenas Ad audiendum judicium which had been made without any such notice
deliver the said Warrants to the riding Clerk to be inrolled according to their Just Right Whereupon his Lordship desired the Master of the Rolls to call all parties concerned before him having heard their several Allegations to certifie his Lordship how he found the case between them who having accordingly heard them made his Report or Certificate to his Lordship in these words 9 July 1662. To the Right Honourable the Earl of Clarendon Lord High Chancellor of England According to your Lordships directions the 29th of April 1662. Upon the Six Clerks Petition to have the Warrants of Leases delivered unto them by Mr. Kipps to be inrolled I have heard them and Hains with his Councel who made it appear that there had been several Patents of like nature to his granted to several persons since the 26th of Henry the 8th In Answer whereunto the six Clerks say that notwithstanding the said Patents Mr. Hains doth not shew that ever any of the said Patentees did inroll any Warrants for Grants that pass the Great Seal nor do any words as I conceive in his or any former Patents mentioned by him extend to the inrolment of any such Warrants The Six Clerks further made it appear that Edward Basely the late Patentee petitioned the lat King against them in 1634. concerning the inrollments of His Majesty's Deeds which was referred to the Commissioners of exacted Fees and I find in the year following upon examination had by the Lord Keeper Coventry with the concurrent Opinion of Sir Julius Caesar Master of the Rolls and Sir John Banks Attorney General it was certified under the hand of the said Lord Keeper amongst other things to have been the due ancient Right held and enjoyed by the Six Clerks to inroll all manner of Warrants for Patent Leases c. whereby the said Patent Leases c. pass the Great Seal Six Clerks to inroll all Warrants for Patent Leases c. whereby the Patend Leases c. pass the Great Seal whereupon his late Majesty by his Letters Patents bearing date the 17th of June 1635. to take away all questions doubts and ambiguities that heretofore have been or hereafter may be raised concerning the same and to the end the Six Clerks and their Successors for ever after might inviolably hold the same did allow approve grant ratifie and confirm the same And it was therein declared to be His Majesty's pleasure that the said Warrants shall be delivered from time to time by him or them in whose custody they shall remain to the Six Clerk who shall be riding Clerk for the time being to the end the said Warrants might be inrolled His Majesty further by the said Patent straightly charging and commanding that no other person or persons whatsoever should from thenceforth encroach or usurp upon them therein or molest or disturb them touching the same And the Six Clerks accordingly have ever since inrolled the said Warrants and before and ever since have received the Fees due for the same All which I humbly submit to your Lordships grave consideration as by the said Report remaining filed with the Register of this Court appeareth Har. Grimstone And his Lordship having perused the said Report doth declare his Concurrence in Opinion with the Master of the Rolls and doth therefore order and appoint the said Mr. Kipps to deliver out the said Warrants to be inrolled as by the said Petition is desired Master of the Rolls Sir Tho.

Concerning Subpaena's Ordo Curiae FOrasmuch as this Court was this day informed by His Majesty's Attorney General that one John Hungerford hath forged made and counterfeited Subpaena's and that he hath put Seals thereon like unto those sealed with the Great Seal as by two several Affidavits now produced and read in Court appeared And further informing that one Theophilus Aylmer had lately bespoke paid 18 s. for and had from the said Hungerford one forged and counterfeit Subpaena for 51 l. 13 s. 4 d. Costs in a Cause depending in this Court between Sharp and Brooks which coming to be examined before the Master of the Rolls he committed the said Hungerford and Aylmer for such misdemeanour contempt and abuse of this Court unto the Prison of the Fleet Punishment of those that forge Subpaena's who are still in Custody It was therefore prayed that the said Hungerford and Aylmer may be punished and made exemplary for such their Misdemeanour Abuse and Contempt of this Court and his Majesty's great Seal Whereupon it is ordered that the said Hungerford and Aylmer be brought into this Court when the Right Honourable the Lord High Chancellor of England doth sit in Court and in the mean time the Register is to search Presidents of what hath been done by the Court in punishing Offences of like nature Mercurii 18 die Julii Anno Regni Caroli II.
