Alexander M. Burrill · 1850
Writ of. A writ of entry, so called from the words "et in quod non habet ingressum nisi post disseisinam quam L. inde injuste et sine judicio fecit C. patri vel alio antecessori praedicti B. &c."; and into which he hath not entry unless after the disseisin which L. unjustly and without judgment thereof made to C. the father, or other ancestor of the aforesaid B. &c. Reg. Orig. 229. This writ was given by the statute of Marlbridge, (c. 30,) in cases where the number of alienations or descents exceeded the usual degrees, no mention of degrees being required to be made in it. The writ merely alleged the injury of the wrong-doer, without deducing all the intermediate title from him to the tenant. 3 Bl. Com. 182.
