Right

writ of. In general^ a writ brought upon title to" recover the full right to a thing; a writ droitural, not possessory. Particularly, the writ for a tenant in fee to recover lands and tenements, counting upon his own title as superior to that of his adversary, the chief real action. This was a writ patent as, distinguished from a writ of right close, which lay either for a tenant in capite; or for tenants in ancient demesne, or their lords, about lands, rents, or services. So a writ of right of advowaon, dower (where a widow endowed had been disseised), etc.: v. Admwson, Bower, Be dote. Search, Way, Bill, II.
