A quick definition of brevia testata:

Brevia Testata: A term used in history that refers to short legal documents called "breve" which were used instead of charters. Brevia testata were short writs that were authenticated by a seal or signature. There were different types of brevia, such as album breve (a blank writ) and apertum breve (an open, unsealed writ). Brevia de bono et malo referred to a writ that dealt with accusations of good and bad behavior, while breve de conventione was a writ used in cases of breach of contract.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Brevia testata is a Latin term used in history that refers to a type of writ. The word "brevis" means "short," and brevia were short writs, unlike charters. It is similar to the term "breve testatum."

  • Apertum breve: An open, unsealed writ.
  • Breve de bono et malo: A writ that deals with the issue of good and evil.
