subinfeudate

A quick definition of subinfeudate:

Term: SUBINFEUDATE

Definition: Subinfeudate means giving a part of your land to someone else, who then becomes your vassal instead of being a vassal of your superior. This was a common way to get knights to serve in the king's or baron's service. The knight who received the land would hold it from the baron in the same way the baron held it from the king.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: To grant land to another, who then holds the land as the grantor's vassal rather than as the vassal of the grantor's superior.

Example: In medieval times, a baron might subinfeudate a portion of his land to a knight in exchange for the knight's obligation to spend a fixed portion of time annually in the king's or baron's service. The knight would then hold the land as the baron's vassal, rather than as the vassal of the king.

Explanation: Subinfeudation was a common practice in medieval Europe, where lords would grant land to their subvassals, who would then become vassals of the lord rather than the king. This allowed lords to maintain control over their lands and ensure that they had enough knights to fulfill their obligations to the king. The example illustrates how a knight would become a vassal of a baron through subinfeudation, rather than a direct vassal of the king.

Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.

Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
