360 19 H. 7, CAP. 20, WRITS OF ERROR.
See the note to 17 R. 2, c. 8. I have included the whole of this Statute,

mined by our present laws.
CAP. XX.
Writs of Error.
Prayen the Commons in this present Parliament assembled,
That where at a Parliament holden at Westminster, in the third
Year of the Reign of our Sovereign Lord the King that now is,

other things, That if any Defendant or Tenant, Defendants or
Tenants, or any other that shall be bound by any Judgment,

Judgment in delaying of Execution of the party, (2) that then

Error, and not erroneous, or that the said Writ of Error be dis-
continued in the default of the party, or the person or persons
that sueth the Writ or Writs of Error be nonsuited in the same,
that then the said person or persons, against whom the said
Writ of Error is so sued, shall recover his Costs and Damages
for his Delay and wrongful Vexation in the same by Discre-
tion of the Justices afore whom the said Writ of Error is sued:
(3) Which Act or Ordinance hath not been as yet duly put in
Execution, by reason whereof, as well Plaintiffs as Demand-
ants, in divers Actions by them sued sith the making of the said

their great and importable Hurt, Loss, and Charges: (41 Where-
276 tore* the King our Sovereign Lord. by the Advice of the

ent Parliament assembled, and by Authority of the same, or-
daineth, establisheth, and enacteth, That the said Act made the

effectual, and that from henceforth it be duly put in Execution.
