proclamation of a fine

proclamation of a fine
A statutory requirement. By 1 Richard III, c. 7 (Fines, 1483), confirmed and enforced by 4 Henry VII, c. 24 (Fines, 1488), the fine, after engrossment, was required to be openly read and proclaimed in court sixteen times (four in the term in which it was made, and four in each of the three succeeding terms), but this requirement was reduced to once each term by 31 Elizabeth, c. 2 (Fines, 1588), and these proclamations were indorsed on the back of the record. See 2 Bl Comm 352.
