Nature of request

Robert de Bayouse states that when James Beuflour sued an oyer et terminer against him before Henry Spigurnel and his companions, he named one John de Suavisethe, his page (garzoun) in the writ, in order to have him accuse Robert. He requests a remedy against such oyers and terminers, which were previously forbidden.

Nature of endorsement

What has been done has been done by process of law: therefore nothing.
