Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition perhaps dates before 1316, as SC 8/2/111 seems to provide details of why the suit was being impeded. However, if one accepts at face value that the length of delays noted in the two petitions are realistic assessments, and we are certain that SC 8/3/111 does date to 1316, then SC 8/3/112 should date to c. 1322.
