Report concerning Trials for Inheritances, Bills of Middlesex, &c.
The Earl of Anglesey reported, "That the Lords
Committees appointed to consider of the usual Way
of Trials now practised for Inheritances more than
was in former Times, with the new Rules settled by
the Judges for such Trials, which obtain the Force of
Acts of Parliament, and to examine whether any
Grievance appears therein to the Subject; and also to
consider of the usual Practice upon Bills of Middlesex
and Latitats, and how the Subject appears to be
grieved thereby; as also to consider of the Statute
made in Anno 13° Caroli Secundi, intituled, "An Act
for preventing of Vexations and Oppressions by Arrests, and of Delays in Suits of Law," and also what
their Lordships think fit to be done thereupon; their
Lordships having had several Meetings hereupon, and
calling to their Assistance some of the Judges, have
made Resolutions, which they offer to the Consideration of the House; which were read, as followeth:
"Resolved, &c. That this new Writ with Ac etiam,
is an Innovation, which, with the Proceedings thereupon, are contrary to the Act made 13° Car'l. Secundi
Cap. 2.
"That the said Act of 13° Car'l. Secundi is eluded
thereby, and the King is prejudiced in His ancient
Right of Fines upon Original Writs.
"That such Proceedings of the Judges are an assuming to themselves in some Measure a Legislative
Power.
"That all Proceedings in this Kind hereafter be forborne by the Judges of the respective Courts; and
that the said Act of 13° Car'l. IIdi be strictly pursued in all Actions for the future.
"And as concerning the Second Clause in the Order
referred to the Committee, that they should call to
their Assistance the Barons of His Majesty's Court of
Exchequer, and consider of some Course for settling
all Matters in Difference touching the Proceedings in
other Courts, and provide for the Ease and Benefit of
the Subject, so that the Statute made in Anno 13°
Car'l. Secundi be not eluded, and all Innovations not
warranted by Act of Parliament may be truely stated,
and such Remedies as shall be thought fit prepared:
The Lords Committees conceive the present Practice
in Trials upon Ejectione Firmæ is an Innovation, by
the Pleasure of the Judges, without Act of Parliament; for Prevention of which for the future, their
Lordships have a Bill (proposed by the Judges) for
Recovery of Possessions; which may, if this House
thinks fit, be taken into Consideration, and, with the
Addition of a Preamble taking Notice of the said Innovation, and with such Additions and Amendments
as shall be thought fit by their Lordships, be made a
Law."
The abovesaid Votes being read, it is ORDERED,
That the Debate of the Matter of this Report shall be
upon Friday Morning next.
