Bland and Fowke, concerning the Receivership of York.
The Report was made by the Judges, in the Cause
between Blands and Fooke, concerning the Receivership
of Yorkshire.
They were of Opinion, "That the Forfeiture of
One Patentee may be the Forfeiture of th'other's
Right; notwithstanding the Word in the Patent runs.
"That they shall execute the said Office conjunctim &
divisim;" and particularly that they were both to put
in Security before Execution thereof; and they find
that only the Elder Brother did put in Security, and
so conceive that the other Brother hath forfeited his
Right therein for Want thereof."
Ordered, That the Committee of the Revenue
shall give Direction, that a legal Course be taken, whereby it may appear whether John Bland hath forfeited
his Right to the Receivership of Yorkshire or not; and
that, in the mean Time, the Committee do take Course
for the Revenues to be received for the Use of the
State.
