not set down any place or time of the notification of his contentment for the same is traversable Gawdy The Issue here is non Assumpsit Assumpsit and therefore that matter is out of the Book Cook If one assume to pay twenty pounds to another upon request although the Defendant plead non Assumpsit yet if the place and time of request be not shewed Iudgment many times hath been stayed for no Action without a Request so here without notification of his contentment no Action therefore he ought to shew it Gawdy The ground of this Action is the Assumpsit but that cannot be certain without Declaration and thereof notice ought to be given to make certainty of the duty but not to enforce the promise but in our case without a Request Assumpsit will not lye But here it being but conveyance the certainty of the time and place is not necessary to be shewed but the general form shall serve for it is but inducement As if a man will plead a devise of goods to him and assent of the Executors to take them he need not to shew the time and place of the assent Gawdy at another day said that Iudgment ought to be given for the Plaintiff the Assumpsit is the ground and cause of the Action and the shewing of the contentment is only to reduce the Action to certainty And Iudgment was given for the Plaintiff CLXVIII Musket and Coles Case Trin. 30 Eliz. In the Kings Bench. WIlliam Musket brought an Action upon the Case against Cole 1 Cro. 13. and declared that in consideration that the Plaintiff had payed unto the Defendant forty shillings for the Debt of Symon his Son the Defendant promised to deliver to him omnes tales billas Obligationes in which his Son was bounden to him which thing he would not do and it was found by Verdict for the Plaintiff And it was moved for stay of Iudgment because the Plaintiff had not averred in his Declaration that the said Defendant had Bills or Obligations in which Simon his Son was bounden to the Defendant Averment for if there were none then no damage And see Onlies Case 19 Eliz. Dyer 356. D. in consideration that the Plaintiff had expended divers sums of money circa the businesses of the Defendant promised c. Exception was taken to that Declaration by Manwood and Mounson Iustices because it was not shewed in what businesses certain and betwixt what persons Gawdy The Plaintiff here is not to recover the Bills or Obligations but damages only and therefore needeth not to alledge any Bills in certain And 47 E. 3. 3. A. covenants with B. to assure unto B. and his Heirs omnia terras tenementa quas habet in such Counties and for not assurance an Action of Covenant was brought and the Plaintiff declared that the Defendant had broken the said Covenant and that he had required the Defendant to make a Feoffment unto him of all his Lands and Tenements in the said Counties and the plea was not allowed for the Land is not in demand but only damages to be recovered See also 46 E. 3. 4. and 20 E. 3. And in the principal case the Plaintiff had time enough for the shewing to the Iury what Bills or Obligations for the instructing of the Iury of the damages CLXIX English and Pellitary and Smiths Case Trin. 30 Eliz. In the Kings Bench. Assault and Battery 1 Cro. 139 140. IN an Action of Trespass of Assault and Battery and wounding The Defendants say that they were Lessees of certain Lands and the Plaintiff came to the said Lands and took certain Posts which were upon the Lands and they gently took them from him S. pleaded that he found the Plaintiff and P. contending for the said Posts and he to part them mollite put his hands upon the Plaintiff which is the same c. The Plaintiff replyed De injuriis suis propriis absque tali causa per ipsos P. S. allegat upon which issue was joyned which was found for the Plaintiff It was moved in arrest of Iudgment that here was not any issue for the Plaintiff ought severally to reply to both pleas aforesaid for here are several Causes of Iustification and his Replication absque tali causa Nomen Collectivum Post 139. Dy. 182. doth not answer to both Cook This word Causa is nomen Collectivum which may be referred to every Cause by the Defendants alledged reddendo singula singulis and their Iustifications are but one matter and the Defendants might have all joyned in one plea. Wray Both pleas depend upon one matter but are several causes for two justifie by reason of their Interest and the third for the preservation of the Peace And by him and the whole Court although it be not a good form of pleading yet by reasonable construction this word Cause shall be referred to every cause and so the pleading shall be maintained And afterwards Iudgment was given against the Plaintiff CLXX Cater and Boothes Case Trin. 30. Eliz. In the Kings Bench. Intrat Hill. 30 Rot. 58. or 581. IF a Writ of Covenant the Plaintiff declared that the Defendant by his deed bearing date the first of October 28 Eliz. did covenant that he would do every act and acts at his best endeavour to prove the Will of I. S. or otherwise Covenant that he would procure Letters of Administration by which he might convey such a Term lawfully to the Plaintiff which he had not done licet saepius requisitus c. The Defendant pleaded that he came to Doctor Drury into the Court of the Arches and there offered to prove the Will of the said I. S. but because the Wife of the said I.S. would not swear that it was the Will of her Husband they could not be received to prove it Vpon which it was demurred in Law. It was moved by Williams that the Action doth not lie for there is no time limited by the Covenant when the thing should be done by the Defendant for which he hath time during his life for as much as it is a collateral thing See 15 E. 4. 31. if there be not a Request before but admit that the Covenant had been to perform upon request Request then the Plaintiff in his Declaration ought to have shewed an express request with the place and time of it for that is traversable See 33 H. 6. 47 48. 9 E. 4. 22. Gawdy If the Covenant had been eypresly to do it upon request there the request ought to be shewed specially But when a thing upon the exposition of the Law only is to be done upon Request such Request alledged generally is good enough And by Wray the Covenantor hath not time during his life to perform this Covenant but he ought to do it upon request within convenient time but in some case a man shall have time during his life as where no benefit shall be to any of the
be a strange construction that the King should be within one part of the Statute and out of the other And 34 H. 6. 3. The Kings Attorney could not have damages which is a great proof and authority that the Iudgment for damages in such case is Error The experience and usage of Law is sufficient to interpret the same to us and from the time of E. 3. until now no damages have been given in such case Thrice this matter hath been in question 1. 3 H. 9. and the Iustices there would not give damages 34 H. 6. there the Councel learned of the King could not have damages for the King. And 7 Eliz. there was no damages And whereas it hath been said that a man shall not have a Writ of Error where Iudgment is given for his benefit that if Iudgment be entred that the Defendant be in Misericordia where it ought to be Capiatur yet the Defendant shall have a Writ of Error And he conceived also that here is but one Iudgment Clench The first President after the making of that Statute was that damages were given for the King in such case but afterwards the practice was always otherwise that the said Statute could not be construed to give in such case damages the reason was because the Iustices took the Law to be otherwise And the King is not within the Statute of 32 H. 8. of buying of Tythes nor any Subjects who buy any title of him And here in our case the Queen is not verus Patronus but hath this presentment by Prerogative And if title do accrue to the Bishop to present for Lapse yet the Patron is verus Patronus At another day the case was moved and it was said by VVray that he had conferred with Anderson Manwood and Periam who held that the Queen could not have damages in this case but Periam somewhat doubted of it Gawdy In 22 E. 4. 46. In Dower the Demandant recovered her Dower and damages by verdict and afterwards for the damages the Iudgment was reversed and stood for the Lands Clench It shall be reversed for all for there is but one Iudgment And afterwards Iudgment was given and that the Queen should have a Writ to the Bishop and damages Popham The Court ought not to proceed to the examination of the Errors without a Petition to the Queen and that was the case of one Mordant where an Infant levyed a Fine to the Queen and thereupon brought a Writ of Error and afterwards by the Resolution of all the Iudges the proceedings thereupon were stayed See 10 H. 4. 148. a good case CCVIII Chapman and Hursts Case Trin. 31 Eliz. In the Kings Bench. BEtwixt Chapman and Hurst Tythes the Defendant did libel in the spiritual Court for Tythes against the Plaintiff who came and surmised that whereas he held certain Lands by the Lease of Sir Ralph Sadler for term of years within such a Parish that the now Defendant being Farmor of the Rectory there The Defendant in consideration that the Plaintiff promised and agreed to pay to the Defendant ten pounds per annum during the Term for his Tythes he promised that the Plaintiff should hold his said Land without Tythes and without any sute for the same and thereupon prayed a Prohibition And by Gawdy the same is a good discharge of the Tythes for the time and a good Composition to have a Prohibition upon and it is not like unto a Covenant See 8 E. 4. 14. by Danby CCIX. Kirdler and Leversages Case Trin. 31 Eliz. In the Common Pleas. IN Avowry the case was Avowry 1 Cro. 241. that A. seised of Lands leased the same at Will rendring rent ten pounds per annum and afterwards granted eundem redditum by another deed to a stranger for life and afterwards the lease at will is determined Periam was of opinion that the Rent did continue and although that the words be eundem redditum yet it is not to be intended eundem numero sed eundem specie so as he shall have such a Rent scil ten pounds per annum As where the King grants to such a Town easdem libertates quas Civitas Chester habet it shall be intended such Liberties and not the same Liberties so in the principal case Also he held that a Rent at will cannot be granted for life and therefore it shall not be meant the same Rent But it was afterwards adjudged that the Rent was well granted for the life of the Grantee CCX Heayes and Alleyns Case Trin. 31 Eliz. In the Common Pleas. Cui in vita 1 Cro. 234. Poph. 13. HEayes brought a sur cui in vita against Alleyn And the case was this The Discontinuee of a Messuage had other Lands of good and indefesible title adjoining to it and demolisht and abated the said house and built another which was larger so as part of it extended upon his own Land to which he had good title And afterwards the heir brought a sur cui in vita and demanded the house by the Name of a Messuage whereas part of the house did extend into the Land to which he had no right And by Periam The Writ ought to be of a Messuage with an Exception of so much of the house which was erected upon the soil of the Tenant Demand and the manner of it in a writ as demand of a Messuage except a Chamber And it was argued by Yelverton That the Writ ought to abate for if the Demandant shall have Iudgment according to his Writ then it shall be entred quod petens recuperet Messuagium which should be Erronious for it appeareth by the verdict it self that the demandant hath not title to part of it and therefore he ought to have demanded it specially 5 H. 7. 9. parcel of Land containing 10 Feet 16 E. 3.
