PLACITA de Quo Warranto, temp. Reg. Edw. I. II. et III. in Curiâ Receptæ Scaccarii Westm. asservata. folio, Londini, 1818. [Ff. 1. 38.] The Statute of Gloucester was passed in the sixth year of the reign of Edward I., and the first chapter of it, which relates to franchises, liberties, and quo warranto, was founded on the previous inquiries made under this commission. Immediately after the passing of this statute, the stated period of the circuit in eyre returned; and on the justices going their iter, writs of right and quo warranto were issued very generally against such persons as claimed manors, liberties, &c. where the jurors had previously said upon oath before the inquisitors in 3 Edward I. Nesciunt quo warranto' the parties held or claimed, and also where they said that the party held or claimed sine warranto. The pleadings before these justices are entered on certain rolls, preserved in the Chapter-House at Westminster, which are denominated QUO WARRANTO ROLLS. Two volumes of the Hundred Rolls, for the period above noticed, and one volume of the Quo Warranto Rolls, during the reigns of Edward I. II. and III. have been printed and their great importance and utility are strongly proved by the frequent references in courts of law to these pleadings, upon questions arising, in modern times, respecting boundaries, franchises, descents of manors or advowsons, and rights claimed under royal charters by lay and ecclesiastical persons. Many obscure passages and obsolete words in charters are repeatedly explained; and much learning, illustrative of the laws and customs of the country, both useful and interesting to the lawyer and the antiquary, will be found dispersed through these works.
