He showed at the last parliament at Westminster that in the last eyre in Kent an assize of novel disseisin passed against him though it was against the law and custom of the realm, and this was found to be the case by Brabazon when Granson brought the matter before him.

Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition is dated to c. 1315 as the petition refers to the eyre in Kent before Hervey de Staunton and his companions which was the eyre of 1313-1314 (Crook, Records of the General Eyre, pp. 180-1). The petition also refers to a parliament held at Westminster which is presumably that held in January 1315.
