Nature of request
Baldwin de Friville states that he had brought a writ of formedon against Giles de Beaulchaump, knight, concerning some tenements in Hanbury by Wick, before John de Stonore and his companions, justices, at Westminster, concerning a gift made by William de Abbynton to Maud Deveros and Alexander de Friville, and to the heirs of Alexander's body - the petitioner being Alexander's grandson - but that as Giles has claimed that he holds the tenements of lease of the king, and that he ought not to answer without the king being consulted, the justices do not wish to proceed to judgment without a writ of the king. He requests a writ to the justices to go ahead in the process and render judgment and do justice to the parties according to the law and custom of the land, notwithstanding this claim.
Nature of endorsement
He is to have a writ in Chancery to the justices of the Bench to go ahead in the process, provided that they do not proceed to render judgment without consulting the king.
