Exemplification of a process showing that whereas John son of Simon
de Clondolkan brought an assize of novel disseisin against John de
Graunsete and others named in the writ for tenements in Corbaly near
Kilcragh before John Moriz, supplying the place of John Darcy, justiciary
of Ireland, at Dublin, on Wednesday before St. Laurence, 16 Edward III,
and complained that he was disseised of an acre of turf, and John de
Graunsete alleged that he was never attached to the said writ until Monday
before St. Laurence, after the hour of vespers, and no writ was sent to the
sheriff of Dublin to cause all the assizes to come before John Moriz at that
session, as ought to be done by the law and custom of the land, and the
writ was unduly served, wherefore he ought not to be put to answer, as the
tenements were situated out of Dublin, and this was found by examination
and oath of the sheriff, John Moriz quashed the claim by judgment, and
awarded that John de Grauntsete should answer, and as the assize was
adjudged to Wednesday and remained because the jurors of the assize
had never made a view of the tenement, an order issued to cause the jurors
to come before John Moriz at Dublin on Saturday before the Assumption
following, and that day given to the parties, John de Graunsete came into
court on that day and claimed that they could not go to take the assize
as the jurors came into court by an order which issued without any evidence,
whereas they ought to come by a writ of judgment issuing out of the record
and under the testimony of John Moriz, the said John Moriz quashed this
claim by judgment and awarded that he should proceed; then John de
Graunsete alleged that he cannot go to take the assize because the order
there returned had John de Graunsete, whereas the original writ had John
de Grauntsete, John Moriz had it entered in record that the sheriff had
never returned the order to make the jurors come to the assize, and awarded
as at another time, to have them before him at Dublin on Wednesday after
St. Laurence, and because the order is not warranted by writ or by roll, the
sheriff was directed to cause the jurors to come as aforesaid that the assize
may not remain, and so he quashed the claim by judgment, also John de
Graunsete claimed that the assize was procured out of the common terms
ordained for holding assizes by statute, wherefore they ought not lawfully
to go to take the assize, John Moriz quashed this exception by judgment
and awarded that John de Graunsete should answer; then John de
Graunsete alleged and claimed that one Richard fitz William was constable
of Swerdes and steward of the archbishop of Dublin for all the cross, and
Richard was openly a maintainer of John son of Simon in this assize and
that Thomas de Belynges, Henry de Belynges, Adam de Belynges and
Adam Portraghryn, jurors summoned in this assize, were residing within the
cross and in the stewardship and danger of Richard, and were empaneled
by him in favour of John son of Simon, wherefore they ought not to be
put in this assize, John Moriz quashed the claim by judgment without trial
and took the assize of them as well as of the other jurors; then John de
Graunsete alleged that there were divers towns in the county of Dublin
called Corbaly, to wit Corbaly next the mountain and other; John Moriz
quashed the claim by judgment without enquiry. In testimony whereof
John Moriz has set his seal to this bill at the request of John de
Graunsete. Dated at Dublin on Monday after the Assumption in the said
year. French. |
