praerogativa regis

Read a random definition: idea–expression dichotomy

A quick definition of praerogativa regis:

Praerogativa Regis: A declaration made during the reign of Edward I in England that defined certain rights of the Crown, including the right to protect the heirs of a mentally incapacitated person from losing their inheritance or property. This document is also the oldest known source of information about the wardship of lunatics. The king was responsible for ensuring that the lunatic and their family were taken care of, and any remaining income from their estate was to be used for the good of their soul or returned to the lunatic upon their recovery.

A more thorough explanation:

Praerogativa Regis: A declaration made during the reign of Edward I (1272-1307) that defined certain feudal and political rights of the Crown. It included the right to wardship of an idiot's lands to protect the idiot's heirs from disinheritance or alienation.

According to the Praerogativa Regis, the king had the right to take control of the lands of a person who was deemed an "idiot" (a legal term for someone who was mentally incapable) to protect their heirs from losing their inheritance. The king was responsible for ensuring that the idiot and their family were properly cared for, and any leftover income from the estate was to be administered for the good of the idiot's soul.

This example illustrates how the Praerogativa Regis gave the Crown the power to protect the interests of vulnerable individuals who were unable to manage their own affairs. It also shows how the Crown had a responsibility to ensure that the idiot and their family were not left destitute, and that any leftover income was used for charitable purposes.
