Definition

Ne injuste vexes, a writ founded on Magna Charta that lay for a tenant distrained by his lord, for more services than he ought to perform; and it was a prohibition to the lord unjustly to distrain or vex his tenant; in a special use it was where the tenant had prejudiced himself by doing greater services, or paying more rent without constraint, then he needed; for, in that case, by reason of the lord's seisin, the tenant could not avoid it by avowry, but was driven to his writ for remedy, Fitz. N.B. 10. Abolished by 3& 4 Wm. 4, c. 27, s. 35.
