Details of SC 8/24/1177B
Reference: SC 8/24/1177B
Description:
Petitioners: Richard Stanop (Stanhope), knight.
Name(s): Stanop (Stanhope), Richard
Addressees: Duke of Bedford, Protector of England, and the lords spiritual and temporal of parliament
Nature of request: Richard Stanop states that William, Lord de Clynton, wrongly disseised him of the third part of the manor of Little Packington in Warwickshire, and swiftly enfeoffed his brother Richard with it. Richard then went overseas under a protection, thus delaying the supplicant from his action. As both parties are present in parliament, he asks that by authority of parliament they may be summoned before the Duke and the lords, and examined on the aforesaid matter; and that when this has been done, they might ordain a suitable remedy for the supplicant.
Nature of endorsement: The supplicant is to sue at common law.
Places mentioned: Pakyngton Pygot (Little Packington), Warwickshire.
People mentioned: [John of Lancaster], Duke of Bedford, Protector of England; William [de Clinton], Lord de Clynton (Clinton); Richard [de Clinton], brother of William, Lord de Clinton.
Note: This petition is edited in Rot. Parl. vol. IV p.165b (no. 4) as being from 9 Henry V (21 March 1421 - 20 March 1422). In that case it would have been presented at the parliament of December 1421, when the Duke of Bedford was presiding. Other parliaments presided over by him were those of October 1419 and November 1417.
Date: [? 1421]
