sims versus gregory and others. trin. 23 car. (or pasch. 22 car.) eot. 247. Trespass. In an action of trespass upon the Statute of Monopolies made anno 21 Jac. the plaintiff sets forth the statute, and that 13 Jul. 14 Car. proclamation was made by the King concerning wines ; by colour whereof the defendants procured the plaintiff to be imprisoned, and 200 pipes of his wine to be detained till he made fine for them; and that afterward, viz. 15 Jul. 14 Car. another proclamation was made, & colore hujua proclamations, postea, scil. 7 Jan. 20 Car. the defendants caused the said plaintiff to be taken and imprisoned, and that the defendants not fearing the said stat. postea scil. 14 Jul. ann. 20. supradicto tantas minas de imprisonamento corporis ipsius T. Sims adtunc & ibidem intulerunt quod idem Th. Sims per longum A1BYN, 23. MICH. 23 OAR.

And the case being much debated, it was agreed, 1. That the plaintiff in his declaration need not answer the order of time wherein the trespasses wete done, but may alledge that which was done 7 Jan. before that which was done 14 Jul. But yet 2. It was resolved, that postea in the latter place must refer to the time im mediately precedent, and cannot leap over that, and refer to the time wherein the proclamation was made. 3. It waa resolved, that the word poatea in this case could not be void, and the time brought in by the scilicet stand absolutely, because the word scilicet is but explanatory, and for instance, and cannot contradict any thing that is precedent, Hob. 172.
