Writs are distributed into several classes .
Some are called brevia formata ,
others brevia de cursu ,
brevia judicialia ,
or brevia magistralia .
There is a further distinction with respect to real actions into brevia nominata and innominata .
The former ,
says Bacon ,
contain the time ,
place and demand very particularly ;
and therefore by such writ several lands by several titles cannot be demanded by the same writ .
The latter contain only a general complaint ,
without expressing time ,
damages , &
c .,
as in trespass quare clausum fregit , &
o .,
and therefore several lands coming to the demandant by several titles may be demanded in such writ .
