34. Two Inquijitions taken at fever al Days by fever al Juries upon one Sta-
tute Merchant were adjudged naught ; One was taken of the Land, and
the other for Land and Goods : And Extent of the whole 4th Part was
naught i For it ihould be of the Moiety of the 4th Part. And note, It
was of a Leafe, which was but a Chattel, and the Sheriff" might have
fold it as Goods j But feeing he had extended it, in this Cafe he fhould
receive Benefit but as in a Common Extent. Brownl. 38. Hill. 10 Jac.

3,f. If the Debt be not paid at the Day, the Proceedings upon it to
have the Fruits and Effects thereof are not like to the Proceedings in
other Cafes or Suits upon Obligations &c. to reduce them to Judgment j
But as they are in their own Nature much like to the Nature of a Judg-
ment, fo is the Proceeding and Execution thereupon much like to the
Proceeding and Execution upon a Judgment ; and therefore the Conufee
may bring an Action of Debt upon a Statute, or he may as foon as the
fame is forfeited have a prefent Execution of it. Greenw. of Courts 143.

36. If you would fue out a Recognizance taken in Chancery^ you are
firlt to bring a Copy of the Recognizance to one of the Clerks of the^
Petty-Bag, and thereupon he will make out 2 Writs of Scire facias; One ot
a Return pait, and the other ot a Return to come. Thefe Writs you
mult deliver to the Sheriff of Middlefex, who will return- them, as in
this Cafe the Law injoins him to do • and when you have your Writs
returned you are to carry them again to the Petty-Bag, and retain one
of the Clerks there to be your Attorney herein, and then give the De-
fendant a Day to appear, which if he do not accordingly, a Judgment
is to be awarded againlt him for his faid Default ; And if the Defend-
ant appears by the Day to him fo given, then is the Plaintiff to declare
againlt him by his laid Attorney, and the Defendant is to anfwerand
plead to the Plaintiff here, as is ufual in the Courts of Common Law ;
And when you are at full JJpie you are at the furtheft of your Proceed-
ing in Chancery ; For then if you proceed to Trial, you mult have the
whole Proceeding in this Oiiice written into Parchment, and it mult
either be lent by the Officer of the Petty-Bag, fealed up, to be tried in
B. R. or C. B (which you will) or elle it may be delivered over un-
filed by the Lord Keeper or Lord Chancellor, which is agreeable with
the Words, Se propria JVianu &c. For there can be no Trial by Jury in
Chancery. Curf Cane. 501. cap. 18.

37. Trie Way of Proceeding upon a Statute Staple is to go nrit to
the Clerk of the Staple, and ihew him the Date ol your Statute Staple,
when it was acknowleged, which will appear by the Statute itfelf; and
then he will make a Certificate thereupon, and feal it up ; the which
carry to the Cfe>kof the Grown, and give it him to make the Exigent
therein ; and then deliver your Certificate to the Clerk ot the Crown,
and have then your Obligation made, and your Extent is to be made and
indcrfed on the Back-fide. This Indorfement of the Extent is called the
Fine of the Extent, which mult be delivered unto the Sheriff, who will
impannela Jury to inquire and extend, and apprehend as well the Body
as the Lands, Goods, and Chattels oi the Party io bound ; And when
the Sheriff has extended them into the King's Hands, he will keep thern
until you bring him a Deliberate, which you may have in the Office ot
the Petty-Bag ; But before you fue out the Deliberate be fure to inform
yourfeif whether there be Eltate or Goods extended fufficient to fatisty
your Statute; For after you have taken your Deliberate youjmll never
have more than what was firft extended and delivered. Therefore it you
can find any more Lands or Goods extendible in any other Place than
you have at firft extended, you may get them extended likewife until
you have fufficient to fatisfy your Debt; and when you have fufficient
then deliver up your Statute unto the Clerk of the Petty-Bag, who will
thereupon make your faid Writ of Deliberate, and not belore. Curf
Cane. 501, 502. tit. Statute Staple.

11. A Man was bound in a Statute Merchant in 10I. Solvend urn Anno
16 E. 3. and alien' d the Land, and Execution was fuedffuppojing the Day of
Payment to be Anno 14 E. 3. and the Alienee was by this at (led, ancl
brought Writ of Error, and it lay well by Award, tictwithjranding he be a
Stranger to the Record, becaufe he is grieved, and no other, and was feifed
of the Land at the Time ot" the Execution profecuted. Pole faid, Now
we never fhall have Execution again : But per Mowbray, Yes, you
ilull ; For the Chancery Hull certify the Tenor of the Record, or
btherwife we will award Execution at another lime upon this Certifi-
cate, which now remains before us; and per Seton if Execution be fued,
and made to the Party, and the Alienee brings Affile, the other may jus-
tify tho' Execution was never returned : But Pole Serjeant Contraband
that it ought to be returned, with whom agreed Mowbray J. becaufe the
Alienee is a Stranger to the Recognizance, Contra of Privies, by him.
Br, Statute Merchant, pi. 21. cites 17 Ail! 24.

Sheriff dees

13. If a Statute Merchant be fued of Parcel of the Lands of the Conu-
for, in'the Name of all his Lands, he fhall never extend on the Reft of
the Lands. Green w. of Courts 147. Tit. Statute Merchant cites Mich.
22 E. 3. Fol. 14

14. If the Conufor or his Heir, after Execution fued, infeoffs the Conttfee or
his Affignec upon Condition, and after re-enters for the Condition broken,
yet the Execution fhall never revive again ; For a Thing which is de-
termined cannot revive again. Br. Audita Querela, pi. 5. cites 46
E. 3. 20.

15. Execution of a Recognizance by Elegit of Lands &c. of Thomas
Camoys, was had by two Merchants ; and afterwards by a former Sta-
tute, the fame Lands were out of the Hands of the laid Merchants de-
livered to the former Conttfee, whereupon the two Merchants delired to
have Execution of other Lands ot the iaid Thomas Camoys, and concedi-
tur. 2 Inft. 679.

16. If Conufor upon Statute Staple be taken, and efcapes, yet his Goods Le 230, isn
and Lands may be extended upon the lame Statute; For the Efcape and P 1, V?' 5U*
the Action which the Plaintijf has againit the Sheriff for the Efcape is !y, l f l c r $ c
no Satisfaction for the Debt. 5 Rep. 86 b. in "BUimfiCftTiS Ctlfe, accordingly,
cites it as adjudged, Hili. 33 Eliz. in C. B. Linacre v. Rodes. But if he '

goes at large;
by Confent of the Conufee, the whole Execution is discharged, and the Conufor fhall have his Land a-

gain immediately. 2 Le. <)6 pi. if. S C Thar in Call- of Execution upon Statute Merchant,

the Execution by the Body is not a full Execution, and therefore, tho' the Sheriff has difcharged the

Body, yet the Conufee may have Execution of Goods aid Lands, but not of the Body. And. 266.

_ faid, That

the Money is paid, and there is no Reafon that the Act of the Sheriff fhall difcharge the E.xe-

•19. An Extent upon a Statute Merchant illued out againft Robfon the
Conufor, and the Sheriff returned, That the Conufor was pofleffed of
diverfeGW/j, and feifed of Lands which he delivered to the Cognizee, and
that the Cognizee accepted of the Land j And becaufe the Sheriff did not
return, T'hat he had not any ether Lands, Goods, or Chattels, it was ad-
judged inefficient, and a new Writ awarded ; But many held, That in
the Cafe of Cognizor, it was well enough, but not in the Cafe of a Pur-
chafor. Brownl. 37. Fletcher v. Robfon.



(S. 2) Intereft. Jf'lmt Inter eft the Com/fee has in the
Land after Extent.



-A :



N Intereft by Extent is a new Species of an Eftate introduced by
Statute Law ; Our Books fay, That it is an Eftate created in
Imitation of a Freehold, & qua// a Freehold ; but no Book can be pro-
duced which lays, That 'tis quafi an Eftate. The Statute of 27 E. 3.
cap. 9. enacts, That he to whom the Debt is due lhall have an Eftate of
Freehold in the Lands : And the Stat, of 13 E. 1. de Mercatortbus fays,
That he lhall have Seiiin ol" all the Lands and Tenements. When a Sta-
tute is extended, it turns the EJlate of the Conufor into a Reverfion ; and
fo are the exprefs Words in Co. r. lnft.250. b. and (6 the Objection,
That he does not hold by Fealty, is anfwered ; and there are no Tenures,
that are to no Purpole ; but he that enters by virtue of a Power to hold
till fatisfied an Arrear of Rent, leaves the whole Eftate in the Owner
of the Land, and not a Reverlion only j Per Ventris J. 2 Vent. 327.
Dighton v. Greenvill.

2. If a Leafe for 7 ears be made, referring Rent, and then the Leffbr
acknowledges a Statute, which is extended, the Conufee after the Extent /ball
have an Action of Debt lor the Rent, and diftrain and avow for the
Rent, (as in Br. tit. Stat. Merch.44. ck Noy, fo. 74) but he that enters
by a Power to hold lor an Arrear of Rent lhall not ; Per Ventris J.
2 Vent. 328. in the Cafe of Dighton v. Greenvill.

3. He in Reverlion may releafe to the Tenant by Extent, which will
drown the Intereft and merge his EJlate according as it is limited in the
Releafe. Co. 1. Inft. 270. b. 273. Tenant by Statute may forfeit by
making a Feoffment. Mo. 603. He is to attorn to the Grant of the Re-
verlion, 1 Roll. 293. And is liable to a J3)uid Juris clamat, 7 H. 4.
19. b. Tenant by Extent may furrender to him in Reverlion, 4 Co. 82.
Corbet's Cafe ; And therefore thefe Cafes are to fhew, That an extended
Intereft makes an Eftate in the Lands as much as any Demife or
Leafe ; Per Ventris J. 2 Vent. 328. in the Cafe of Dighton v. Green-
vill.

He fhould 4. The Conufee of a Statute extended the Lands, and they were deli-
havebrought vered to him upon a Liberate. He a/Jigned his Intereft, but the Conufor
on SS^ B continacd m Poffeffio/t. The Queition was, Whether this Intereft
rate andre-" w '^ 3 alfignable ? The Court held, That it was not alfignable. It was
covered the objected, That before Entry by the Conufee this was like an Interelle
Pofleffion, Termini, or the Intereft ol one that has a Leafe to commence at a fu-
Affi mment ture Day > whice is alhgnable i So here the Conufee has ai before

have Re extent, nor other Remedy, but fhall pay the Monies ; But if extended too high, it m3y, at the
Prayer of the Conufee, be delivered to the Extenders by the Statute of Acton Burneil. Br. Extent &c.

pi 6. Ibid, pi 9. cites S. C. and fays, That neither Plaintiff nor Defendant upon a Statute Merchant

or Staple fhall have Re-extent. But the Conufee, if the Land be extended too high, may pray that it
be delivered to the Extenders by the Statute of Acton Burneil ; and as to the Conufor, if he miflikes,
he ought to pay the Money the fooner.- Br. Statute Merchant, pi. 16. cites 15 H. 7. 14. S.C.

3. Nota, It appears by the Preamble of the Aft of 32 H. 8. and by
diverfe Books, That after a full and perleft Execution had by Extent
returned, and of Record, there fhall never be any Re-extent upon any
Eviction ; But if the Extent be insufficient in Law there may go out a
new Extent. Co. Litt. 290. a.

4. The Conufor and the Conufee of a Statute both died. The Executors
of the Conuiee fued Execution in Chancery, upon which Writ the Sheriff
returned the Death of the Conufor, and alio an Inquiiition of the Extent
of the Lands of the Conufor; But in the Inqmjition no certain Eltate was
returned, but generally that the Conufor "xas Jeiied, at the Day of the Recog-
nizance acknowledged, of the Manor of Rrodeley, whereas the Name of the
Manor was Borley, without lhewing what Eltate ; notwithstanding a
Liberate ijjued forth upon this Return, and the Executors accepted of it ac-
cording to the Extent. The Doubt was, If the Executors die before any
Profits received by them of the Land upon that Extent, ;/" their Execu-
tors nuzht have a Re-extent upon that infufficient and uncertain Return ?

* And

And it was the Opinion of the Juftices, (hewn the Ld.Keeper,That they
might, for the firft Extent was void ; For the Return, That he was
feiied, might be taken either of an Eltate for Life or in Tail; in which
Cafe, after the Death of the Conufor, his Land is not extendible; and
therefore of Neceffity, in this Cafe, where the Death of the Conufor
appears in the Return it ought to be found, That he was feifed of
an Eltate in Fee-Simple only. D. 299. a. pi. 31. Pafch. 13 Eliz.

6. An Extent was fued upon a Statute Merchant, and the Sheriff />.vf
the Conufee in Pojfeffion of Parcel of a Hottfe and Lands, and let the Conufor

Poflelfion ot the whole, caufed the Sheriff' that he did not make a Return

of his Writ ; whereupon it was entered on the Roll, J&uod Vicccomes nihil
inde fecit nee mijit breve ; and then an Alias extendi Facias ijfued to the
new Sheriff ', who return d that a Writ of Extent came to the old Sheriffs
and that he extended the Lands 9 whereiore he could not extend them upon
the new Writ. Manwood (aid that this certainly is an inefficient Re-
turn, becaufe it now appears on Record that no Execution was done ;
but if the Entry had not been, he ihould well agree that the fame is an
Execution for the Party, tho' it be not return'd. 2 Le. 12, 13. pi. 20.
