<Actor>
Set quod nullo iure uobis hee
decimationes competant de facili demonstramus. Nam in quodam capitulo
legitur, "Si quis laicus, uel clericus seu utriusque sexus proprietatis sue
loca, etc." < Marginal gloss:
Infra C.xvii. q.i. c. Si quis laicus uel clericus>
--- <Gratianus>
sicut in eodem capitulo in causa monachorum
nota inuenitur. Si ergo
laicus uel clericus uel
quelibet persona loca sue proprietatis uendens aut donans, prouentum
decimationum ab ecclesia <fol. 112> cui legitime assignatus est nullo potest
iure abstrahere. Nec isti de diocesi ad diocesi transeuntes decimas suorum
prediorum que intra terminos nostre parrochie continentur nobis auferre
possunt. Quantum enim ad ius percipiendarum decimarum attinet, idem est
possessorem de dioecesi ad dioecesim transire, quod possessionem de
dioecesano ad dioecesanum transferri.

<Plaintiff> We can easily prove that these tithes are not yours. In a certain chapter it is read "Si quis laicus uel clericus seu utriusque sexus proprietatis sue loca, etc. Gratian: this chapter can be found in the Causa monachorum. If therefore a laymen or a cleric or any person sells or donates the lands to which he has rights, the income of tithes which are legitimately assigned cannot be taken away by any law. Those who move from diocese to diocese cannot take away the tithes of their lands that lie within our diocese from us. As far as the right of receiving tithes is concerned, it is the same if the possessor of lands moves from diocese to diocese as the possession would be moved from bishop to bishop.
