Note 488 — Book XIII.
John Beames translation
Appellans sive appellatus. These terms are generally used in a criminal sense. Their application in the present instance may be accounted for by reflecting, that a Disseisin, being in the eye of the law accompanied by force and a violation and disturbance of the peace, was to a certain degree a criminal offence.—See Mirror, c. 2. s. 23.
