the Son is privy also in blood but not in estate for although the possession of the same land came to him by discent as heir to his father yet he was therein remitted forthwith to his former estate 3 And a third kind of privitie in blood tantum is where a man in some respect is privy in blood and estate and in another respect privy in blood tantum As for example if there be two brothers and the eldest purchaseth lands in Fee is thereof disseised by his younger brother afterward disseised by a stranger and that stranger dyeth thereof seised the younger brother being within age and afterwards the elder brother dyeth without issue the younger Son hath two manner of rights to the land the one is a right of entry against such heir as is in by discent during his minority but that right is only in respect of his former possession which he obtained by disseisen and not as heir to his brother and in this respect he is privy in blood to his eldest brother but not privy in estate The other right that is now in the younger brother is only a right in action and not a right of entry and this is in him as heir to his brother whose entry was taken away by the said discent in respect of his right he is privy in blood and estate to his brother Privity in estate tantum is where a man claimeth an estate in land as assignee to another as if A infeoffe B. in this case B. and his heirs are privy in estate to A. Privity in blood and in estates are of two sorts whereof the one may properly be called a privity of blood and estate the other is so called improperly and in a borrowed sence That which is properly called a privity in blood and estate is when both privities do acrew by discent by or from one Ancestor The other is when one of them acreweth by one manner of title and the other by title of another kind as for example if there be a father and a son and the father purchaseth lands and dyeth thereof seised and the same doth descend to his Son he is to his father in a proper sence privy in blood and estate because both those privities doe to him acrew by one discent from one Ancestor It is to be noted that such privies as the Statute meaneth are after the ingrossing of the Fine Proclam made according to the form of the Statute absolutely barred without hope of recovery or restraint by any claim but such as are strangers are barred only conditionally if they or their heirs do not claim according to the form of the Statute within the times therein prescribed It is a rule in Law that no error in the fault of the Judge can be assigned to reverse a Judgement unless it may be tryed by view of the Record or by inspection of the person for if it should many grave Judgements would be overthrown by corrupt tryals of false surmises to the subversion of Justice and maintenance of Vice But if the Judge give Judgement for the one party upon the matter appearing of record whereas he ought to give judgement for the other party this is reversible by error because such a fault of the Judge through ignorance of the Law is apparent by the view of the Record What persons may be Cognisors in Fines and what not AN Infant ought not to be Cognisor especially if it be a Feme covert for that she cannot reverse it during the coverture which continuing till she come to full age barreth her for ever 50 E. 3. fo 5. 21.

And yet they are not contained in the letter of exception or of any of the savings which do save r●ghts to men and their heirs speaking nothing of Corporations or successions or of any thing in succession He which intrudeth upon the Kings possession ought not to be Cognisor for his Fine is void for by his entrie upon the King after office and before livery sued he gaineth no freehold 1 H. 7. fo 9. 24 E. 3. f. 65 but if the Fine be levyed without intrusion it bindeth the Cognisor and his heirs if the Husband levies a Fine of his wives land without her it is void 32 H. 8. c. 28.
