Royal Writs

Royal writs are formal legal orders issued by the monarch or their representative to authorities or individuals, directing them to take or refrain from specific actions. Historically, they were used to address legal matters, such as summoning courts, regulating land, or administering justice. These writs served as a way for the monarch to issue commands within the legal system, ensuring their authority was upheld across regions. While their use has declined with modern government systems, royal writs historically played a key role in administering justice and governance in monarchies.
