Viewing Event Record: Requests, Woodford vs Holland: The court orders Holland to appear and answer the complaint

Abstract

The Court of Requests orders Aaron Holland to appear to answer the complaints made by Thomas Woodford concerning the disputed profits from the Red Bull playhouse. The bill and answer do not survive, but this order summarizes that Woodford demanded his part of the profits due to his lease, which was formerly held by Thomas Swinnerton. Woodford also wanted a new lease drawn up, as well as an accounting of the 18p a week due him from 'the gatherers place.'
