401 Spoliation.

SPoliation, is a suite for the fruites of a Church, or for the church it self, and it is to bee sued in the spiri∣tuall

Court, and not in the temporall Courtes. And this suite lyeth for one incumbent agaynst ano∣ther incumbent, where they both claime by one pa∣tron, and where the right of the patronage doth not come in question or debate. As if a Parson bee crea∣ted a Bishop, and hath dis∣pensation to kéepe his be∣nefice still, and afterward the Patron presents an∣other incumbent which is instituted, and induc∣ted: Nowe the Bishoppe maie haue against that Incumbent a Spoliation in the Spirituall Courte, because they claime both by one Patron, and the right of the patronage doth not come in debate, and be∣cause that the other incum∣bent came to the possession of the benefice by the course of the Spirituall Lawe, that is to saie, by instituti∣on and induction, so that he hath colour to haue it and bee Parson by the spiri∣tuall Lawe. For other∣wise if he be not instituted and inducted &c. Spolia∣tion lyeth not against him,

but rather a writ of Tres∣passe, or an assise of Nouel disseisin &c.

So it is also where a person which hath a plu∣ralitie doeth accept an o∣ther benefice, by reason whereof the Patron pre∣sents another clerke, who is instituted and inducted, now the one of them may haue Spoliation against the other, and then shall come in debate if hee haue a sufficient pluralitie or not. And so it is of depri∣uation &c.

The same law, is where one sayeth to the Patron, that his Clerke is dead, where vpon hee presents another: There the first incumbent which was supposed to bee dead may haue a Spoliation against the other, and so it is in di∣uers other like cases, whereof See Fitzherbert Nat. breuium.
