A volume containing an abridgement of Le Livre des Assises (first published as Tabula libri assisarum et placitorum corone, ed. by John Rastell ([London], [1514?], ESTC S121691); see, for instance, Le livre des assises et pleas del' corone…, ed. by John Rastell (London, 1679, ESTC R40449)), written by five contempory hands of the early fifteenth century. Scribe A (ff. iv-vii verso, x verso (the calendar of contents), 73 verso-74, 76-88 verso, 96 verso-108 verso) is seemingly the controlling hand, and is responsible for the foliation and most of the additions and annotations. The other hands are B (ff. 1-42 verso), C (ff. 42 verso-75 verso, except for brief interruptions by A and D), D (ff. 51 verso-53 passim, 62, 65) and E (ff. 88 verso-96 verso). Running titles; no rubrication.
