(B) Of the Punishment therein.

It hath been resolved, that a statute, by appointing that an offender shall incur the penalty and danger mentioned in the 16 Ric. 2, c. 5, does not confine the prosecution for the offence to the particular process thereby given.

Vent. 173.

It is holden, that the statutes of pramunire which give a general forfeiture (a) of all the lands and tenements of the offender, extend not to lands in tail.` Co. Lit. 130. (a) Whether the forfeiture of any lands, &c., shall relate to the time of the offence, or only to that of the judgment, Qu.; and vide Cro. Car. 172; Jon. 217. It hath been adjudged, that a pardon of all misprisions, trespasses, offences, and contempts, will pardon a præmunire.

Cro. Ja. 336; 2 Bulst. 299.

The defendant in a præmunire must regularly appear in person, whether he be a peer or commoner, unless he is dispensed with by some writ or grant for that purpose; though in the case of Sir Anthony Mildmay,(b) he was allowed to plead a pardon to a præmunire by attorney: but (c) it has been thought that there was some clause to this effect in the pardon.

3 Inst. 125. (b) 1 Roll. R. 190; 2 Bulst. 290. (c) 2 Hawk. P. C. 273. Upon an indictment of a præmunire, a peer of the realm shall not be tried by his peers.

12 Co. 92, Ld. Vaux's case.

Upon an information on the statute 6 G. 1, c. 18, for setting up a bubble called the North Sea, it was determined, that the court was not obliged by that act to give the whole judgment, as in case of a præmunire, against the defendant, but only such parts of it as in their discretions they should. think fit; and accordingly a fine of 51. was set on the party convicted, and judgment that he should remain in prison during the king's pleasure. 2 Ld. Raym. 1361; The King v. Cawood, Stra. 472.
