Nature of request
John de Tynton of Stixwould and Margaret his wife state that they recovered certain damages from a re-disseisin of which Robert de Godesfeld and John Burel were convicted before John de Nevill, Sheriff of Lincolnshire, and the coroners of the county, and that Robert, without paying these damages, purchased an attaint on the re-disseisin, and has now passed out of court without paying. They ask for a writ that, if Robert has not paid the damages by a certain day, the record might be sent back to King's Bench until they are; and then John and Margaret will be happy to answer to the attaint.
Nature of endorsement
It is agreed by the council that the Sheriff of Lincoln is to be ordered by a writ - containing the effect of the process which has taken place on the aforesaid re-disseisin before the then Sheriff of Lincolnshire, and likewise the process which has taken place afterwards before the King, and how the aforesaid Robert afterwards acquired a jury of 24 on the re-disseisin, and obtained a writ of Chancery to the justices of King's Bench to release the aforesaid Robert on mainprise to be before the justices to pursue that attaint, and how the aforesaid Robert has not yet pursued that attaint as he ought, in order to avoid payment of the damages adjudged in the said re-disseisin - to re-arrest the said Robert, so as to have him before the King at the quinzaine of Trinity wherever etc., to proceed further in the said business there, as is rightly to be done, and to have that writ there then. And the justices are to be ordered by another writ to receive Robert from the Sheriff, to proceed further in the said business, in the same condition in which the business was on the day on which they received the writ to release Robert on mainprise etc.
