H. 6. by all the Justices Because none shall pay such ayde but tenants in Soccage or Chivalrie and not tenant by grand Serjeanty nec alii Replevin against two of a horse taken who come and one of them avoweth for a rent charge and the other for a rent service out of the same Land and both alleage seisin within 50. yeares this is a good avowry upon this limitation 31. E. 3. in Fitz. 241. Because it is not like to coparceners betwixt whom is privity A man avowes the taking of two Clothes for toll due 52. yeares past by custome to destraine the goods of the buyer within the village for toll c. this is a good avowry notwithstanding this Statute Because it is not for rent suit nor service 20. E. 3. Avowry because the custome of his Mannor is that if any one breake the pound that he and his ancestors de tempore c. have used to distraine for x. s. this is good notwithstanding this Statute Because the prescription is good betwixtTenants of the Mannor and it is not for rent suit nor service Lords measne and Tenant the measne is in arrerages to the Lord the Lord distraines the Tenant the Tenant forejudges the measne the Lord accepts the rent and services by the hands of the Tenant and after avowes upon the Land for the arrerages of the measne and alleageth seisin within 50. yeares this is no good avowry for the arrerages Because this is the act of the Tenant and cannot doe otherwise but take him for his Tenant 7.

A man seised of a Mannor in right of his wife leaseth the Mannor for xx yeares rendring x. livre. by the yeare at Michaelmas the wife dies without issue before Michaelmas after Michaelmas past the lessor may distraine and make an avowry by this Statute Because that untill the wise enters the tenant shall render the rent to the husband Avowry because the custome of the Mannor is to have x. li. for a fine of every villaine there which marrieth his daughter without licence and that such a villaine married there within 50. yeares without lilence c. and therefore avoweth this is not good Because he may take the goods of his villain by the common Law A man distraines his Tenant for homage due 50. yeares past the Tenant dyes his Executor sueth a Replevin after 50. yeares the defendant justifies for homage which was due 50. yeares past and that the tenant is dead this is a good justification notwithstanding the Statute Because the Statute speakes only of an avowry and cognisance and not of justification A
2. s. and sute of Court the Lord brings a Cessavit against both and hath execution and distraines in the other moity and makes an avowry for sute upon a seisin within 50. yeares according to this Statute this avowry is not good Because by this recovery and execution the entire sute is gone because he cannot be contributory to himselfe contrary of a rent because that shall be apportioned note the difference Lord and Tenant by fealty and foure shillings rent the Lord releases the rent to the tenant and to the heires of his body the tenant dies without issue the Lord distraines his next heire and makes an avowry upon this limitation for rent due after the death of the Tenant the avowry well lyeth Because a release for one houre to tenant in fee-simple as to the title of the Land is good for ever and yet contrary of a rent Fitz Voucher 120.13 E. 3.92 because that was his estate in the rent and so is it there adiudged Lords measne and tenant every one holds of each other by iiii d the Lord releaseth to the Tenant all his right in the Land and after the measne distraines and avowes for iiii d upon the tenant upon this limitation the avowry doth not lie Because by the release the moity is extinct Lord and Tenant by fealty and iiii d rent the rent is behinde the Lord disseiseth the Tenant of the same Land and continueth possession by a yeare and after the tenant recovers by an Assise the Lord distraines and makes an avowry for arrerages due before the disseisin upon this limitation this is a good avowry 8. E. 3.37 Because all is received by the recovery and nothing shall be recompted but that which is before the unity A man hath issue a son and a daughter by one Venter and a son by another and is seised of two acres of Land and grants x. s. rent charge in fee out of one to the son the son dies without issue and after the father dyes the daughters enter and make partition and the acre charged is allotted to the youngest the eldest daughter distraines his sister and makes an avowry upon this limitation for 5. s. this is goods Because nothing is extinct but the moity of the rent for nothing is descended of the Land to the eldest daughter but the moity of the land but the entire rent is descended to him 34. E. 3. Quintons Case A man makes one Steward of his Mannor and gives x. li. fee to him with distresse officio suo exequendo with manger and boyer for terme of life and the Steward leaseth the fee and the manger and boyer to the Lord of the Mannor for foure yeares rendring to him 12 li per annum with clause of distressein the Mannor by deed indented the Steward doth not keep the Courts and afterwards distraines for the 12 li and makes an avowry upon this limitation the avowry doth not lie Because it is extinct by the nonfeasance of the services c. 20. E. 4.12 because when the Rent comes by reason of the Land there a lease to the Lord is a suspension but contrary where it commeth ratione personae per Curiam Tenant in taile aliens in fee with warranty and leaveth assets and dieth the issue is barred in a formedon the donor destraines and avowes upon the heire in taile of the seisin within 50. yeares the avowry is good upon the Statute Because this is nothing to the doner The fifth Lecture Of Formedons Whereas the Statute is that Formedons in reversion shall be brought within 50. yeares after title and cause of action accrued It is to be seen to whom action shall be said sufficiently accrued to take advantage of the Statute and from what time the 50. yeares shall be accounted è contra A Man lets Land to one for life the remainder to his own wife in tayle and dyeth the Tenant for life dies and I. N. enters Action is not accrued to the wife to have a formedon in remainder within the 50. yeares Because a gift immediat to his ownewife is not good but contrary of a feoffement to an use or a demise but if he in the remainder be not capable at the time of the livery hee shall never bee as in the case of Rikhill A man lets for life the remainder of I. N. in fee I. N. enters in religion the lessee for life dies the brother of I.N. enters and commits felony and is attainted the Lord enters for an Escheate I.N. is deraigned before 30. H. 8. no action of formedon in the remainder is accrued to him Because it was executed before in his heire and the forfeiture for felony is executed also and religious persons shall not be capable by the Statute of 31. H. 8. A man leaseth for life the remainder to Deane and Chapter and to the heires of the Deane the Tenant for life dies I. N. enters the Deane and Chapter which then were die and others are chosen action is accrued to the heire of the Deane by a formedon in the remainder but not of all Because he had but a moity only A man leaseth for life the remainder in taile the tenant for life alieneth in fee no formedon in remainder is accrued to him in the remainder Because tenant for life is yet living and during his life a formedon lyeth not Lord measne and tenant the measne graunts his menasltie for terme of life the remainder over in taile the remainder over in fee the tenant attornes the terr tenant brings a Writ of measne against the measne for terme of life and forejudges him the measne for life dyeth a formedon is not accrued to him in the remainder Because the tenant of the Lord paramount by the forejudger and all the remainders is but the same seigniory because that albeit forejudger doth not lie against tenant for terme of life nor against tenant in tayle nor a feme covert yet the judgement is not void but error and the action doth not lie untill judgement reversed and in remainder by equity of the Statute which speakes of reversions 9. R. 2. cap. 3. A man gives Land for terme of life the remainder in fee the tenant for life is disseised the Lord brings a Writ of Right the Lord disclaimes against the disseisor and recovers upon the disclaimer the tenant for terme of life dyeth the Lord enters action is accrued to him in the remainder by a formedon in remainder Because that he in the remainder is not bound A man gives in tayle to I. N. who leaseth for life and enters and dies without issue 60. yeares before Ascension 1546. the tenant for life dyes 26. yeares after he in the reversion may have a formed on in reverter post I.
