Nature of request
Robert Tailbos, whose father William was convicted of high treason in the parliament of the first year of Edward IV, asks that the act convicting him might be considered null and void by authority of parliament, and that Robert and his heirs might have and enjoy all the lands, tenements and possessions, that would have been theirs if the act had never been, without making further suit for them - and that all letters patent made by the king concerning these possessions since they came into his hand should now be considered void, but no person should be chargeable for any issues taken from these possessions in that time.

Note
This petition is enrolled on the roll of the parliament summoned at Westminster in October 1472 (12 Edward IV) and prorogued a number of times until January 1475 (Rot. Parl. vol. VI, pp.18a-19a). It would seem, from pp.3a and 39a that this petition was delivered during the session which lasted from 3 October to 30 November 1472.
