The series was initiated about 1549 to hold the writs of latitat returned with the endorsement 'non sunt inventi' to signify that defendants could not be found, which were formerly filed in the Bille files (KB 147). These latitats became merely formal documents and probably ceased to be kept in the1590s, with the file for Easter 1590 being the latest known example.
Each file generally corresponds to a legal term.
The surviving files are numbered on a systematic basis. The first element is a reign number, running from 1 (Edward VI). The second is the regnal year, the third represents the term within the year. The numbers used to represent the different terms varies from reign to reign, according to the point in the calendar year at which the new monarch succeeded to the throne.
