Talk:Petitions of Right Act 1860

amoveas manus ouster le main
"A judgment in favour of the applicant was equivalent to a judgment of amoveas manus ouster le main."

This is completely useless to those of us (I am sure the vast majority) who have no idea what "a judgment of amoveas manus ouster le main" might have been. Please don't simply copy chunks of text from the 1911 Britannica and assume everyone will know what it all means! 86.136.250.66 (talk) 18:56, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
