A78485	Certaine proposals of divers attorneys of the Court of Common-Pleas, for the regulating the proceedings at law, and remedying some inconveniences: whereby the clyent will be much secured, the processe shortned, the greatest part of the charge of most suits abated, many unnecessary suits in law and equity prevented, and the creditor and purchaser well provided for: and thereby lending, trade and commerce advanced: which is the end and desire of the proposers. / Presented to the honourable committee for the regulating proceedings in law Decemb. 5. 1650.		1651 (1651)	Wing C1728; Thomason E622_7; ESTC R206432	18,583	22

they_o humble_o conceive_v it_o fit_a overplus_n there_o be_v by_o reason_n the_o civil_a law_n have_v no_o compulsary_a process_n no_o remedy_n but_o in_o chancery_n for_o legacy_n where_o if_o the_o legacy_n be_v small_a it_o be_v quick_o spend_v with_o a_o great_a overplus_n that_o some_o legal_a course_n be_v provide_v for_o the_o recovery_n of_o legacy_n and_o that_o the_o client_n shall_v not_o be_v force_v to_o a_o equitable_a course_n in_o chancery_n for_o every_o petit_fw-fr legacy_n the_o remedy_n whereby_o often_o prove_v worse_o than_o the_o disease_n they_o therefore_o humble_o propose_v that_o a_o action_n of_o debt_n trover_n detinue_n or_o other_o action_n as_o the_o case_n require_v may_v lie_v at_o common_a law_n for_o the_o same_o and_o that_o therein_o the_o thing_n

be_v aver_v yet_o few_o fraud_n be_v hard_a to_o be_v prove_v they_o humble_o conceive_v it_o very_o hard_a to_o the_o creditor_n that_o the_o bare_a alienation_n of_o a_o heir_n shall_v defeat_v he_o of_o a_o just_a debt_n the_o same_o be_v often_o do_v mere_o in_o fraud_n when_o perhaps_o the_o creditor_n money_n purchase_v the_o land_n descend_v and_o therefore_o they_o humble_o propose_v that_o a_o action_n of_o debt_n may_v lie_v against_o the_o heir_n in_o all_o case_n as_o well_o after_o as_o before_o alienation_n and_o that_o his_o person_n good_n and_o land_n may_v be_v subject_a to_o

this_o proposal_n may_v if_o the_o parliament_n shall_v conconceive_v meet_a be_v extend_v to_o the_o heir_n of_o copy-holders_n as_o well_o as_o freeholder_n 14._o against_o many_o person_n run_v

against_o they_o humble_o propose_v that_o in_o case_n any_o debtor_n shall_v continue_v in_o prison_n upon_o any_o execution_n or_o process_n of_o law_n for_o due_a debt_n above_o a_o year_n or_o continue_v outlaw_v after_o judgement_n above_o a_o year_n after_o notice_n thereof_o that_o then_o at_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o plaintiff_n a_o writ_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o fierifacias_fw-la may_v issue_v out_o of_o the_o court_n from_o whence_o the_o process_n issue_v whereupon_o he_o continue_v so_o in_o prison_n direct_v to_o the_o sheriff_n whereby_o the_o say_a sheriff_n shall_v be_v

whereas_o the_o creditor_n be_v often_o defraud_v of_o his_o just_a debt_n by_o the_o fraud_n and_o coven_v of_o executor_n and_o administrator_n for_o remedy_v thereof_o they_o humble_o propose_v that_o in_o all_o case_n where_o executor_n or_o administrator_n shall_v suffer_v judgement_n by_o nihil_fw-la dicit_fw-la nonsum_fw-la informatus_fw-la or_o confession_n that_o asset_n shall_v be_v

at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o say_a trial_n that_o then_o if_o the_o defendant_n or_o defendant_n shall_v come_v be-before_a before_o any_o judge_n of_o the_o same_o court_n where_o such_o cause_n shall_v be_v depend_v before_o the_o say_a trial_n administer_v at_o this_o day_n if_o a_o executor_n give_v judgement_n by_o default_n the_o plaintiff_n must_v either_o procure_v the_o sheriff_n to_o return_v a_o devastavit_fw-la which_o will_v not_o be_v have_v but_o by_o bribe_n and_o security_n or_o else_o he_o must_v proceed_v by_o way_n of_o inquiry_n which_o be_v a_o very_a questionable_a way_n and_o as_o seem_v very_o dangerous_a for_o defendant_n for_o if_o a_o inquest_n of_o office_n find_v assett_n the_o defendant_n have_v legal_o no_o remedy_n though_o in_o strict_a law_n he_o have_v no_o way_n to_o avoid_v it_o have_v no_o day_n in_o court_n after_o judgement_n nor_o attaint_v against_o the_o jury_n and_o now_o because_o the_o civil_a law_n have_v no_o compulsatory_a

few_o of_o they_o be_v lawyer_n can_v well_o judge_v therein_o that_o in_o case_n the_o parliament_n shall_v think_v fit_a to_o continue_v payment_n of_o tithe_n that_o then_o a_o action_n of_o debt_n detinue_n or_o trespass_n may_v lie_v general_o at_o common_a law_n for_o the_o same_o as_o well_o before_o set_v forth_o as_o after_o wherein_o damage_n and_o cost_n may_v be_v recover_v as_o in_o other_o like_a action_n at_o common_a law_n 16._o they_o humble_o propose_v that_o for_o the_o avoid_n of_o unnecessary_a and_o frivolous_a suit_n at_o law_n that_o it_o may_v be_v enact_v that_o if_o any_o attorney_n or_o solicitor_n shall_v deposit_v in_o the_o defence_n or_o prosecution_n of_o his_o client_n cause_v any_o other_o or_o large_a sum_n or_o sum_n then_o so_o much_o as_o the_o
