Later tradition ascribed to Glanville the invention of the assize of novel disseisin and the action of replevin. This association must be connected with the attribution to him of the Tractatus de legibus et consuetudinibus regni Anglie (commonly called Glanvill), a manual concerning royal judicial procedures, composed, or at least completed, between 1187 and 1189. Roger of Howden, under the year 1180, mentions the appointment as justiciar of Glanville, ‘by whose wisdom the laws written below were established [conditae]’. [1]
