real action

real action (1)(罗马法)物权诉讼 为返回被别人占有但却属于自己所有的财产而进行的诉讼,包括动产,亦包括不动产。该诉讼因其救济能返还诉请之物而得名。 (2)(英格兰古法)返还土地之诉;不动产权益诉讼 普通法中自由土地保有人〔freeholder〕为回复其土地或某种土地权益而进行的诉讼。它包括:1由权利令状〔writ of right〕开始的决定土地产权〔title to land〕的土地权利诉讼;2由大陪审团解决侵占〔disseisin〕问题而进行的土地占有诉讼;3由进占令〔writ of entry〕开始的土地占有诉讼。后来这些诉讼为驱逐之诉〔ejectment〕所取代。1875年之后,这些诉讼格式均被取消,统一为一般的诉讼。(→action; personal action)

assize

assize n. (1)〈英〉条例;法令;法 古代用来指称一些立法文件,如「Assize of Bread」、「Assize of Clarendon」、「Assize of the Forest」等。 (2)〈英〉(为解决土地占有或地产权利而举行的)审判或(进行的)诉讼及与此相关的程序、(为此而召集的)咨审团及其成员;巡回审判 「assize」源于拉丁文「assideo」,意为「坐在一起」〔sit together〕,后来的巡回陪审可能即源于此。亨利二世时代的一项法令规定,在有关土地占有和地产权利〔seisin and title to land〕的诉讼中,可以由郡长召集本郡4名骑士,由他们和他们所挑选的12名知情人共同组成16人的咨审团经宣誓后回答法官的提问和向法官陈述实情。这种诉讼、程序及咨审团组织均可称为「assizes」。在这一类诉讼中,有些诉讼的名称来源于争议的客体,如「共牧权之诉」〔assize of common of pasture〕;但更多的则来源于争议的起因,如「新侵占之诉」〔assize of novel disseisin〕等。《大宪章》〔Magna Carta〕规定,新侵占之诉和收回继承地之诉〔assize of mort d’ancestor〕应在争议地产所在郡开庭,为此皇家民事法庭每年都要向各郡派出巡回法官〔justices of assize〕前往主持开庭。后来1285年《初审条例》〔Statute of Nisi Prius〕规定,巡回法官应当在案件发生地听审案件,然后将陪审团的裁决送回威斯敏斯特以供中央法庭作出判决,这样在巡回法官面前进行的民事诉讼被称为是在巡回法庭开庭〔to take place at the assizes〕。巡回法官每次派出时都会得到王室的委任状,普通委任状每年两次发给高等法院的法官,一般是每一巡回区派出两名法官;特别委任状是针对特定事项而发给特定法官的。过去巡回法官的委任状分为独立的四种:1刑事听审委任状〔commission of oyer and terminer〕;2提审囚犯委任状〔commission of gaol delivery〕;3巡回初审委任状〔commission of nisi prius〕;4治安委任状〔commission of the peace〕。另外曾经还有一种被称为巡回审判委任状〔commission of assize〕,它指令法官依据巡回审令状〔writ of
