Two subjects from the Emperor Charles’ era. The "Partistas de Santiago" (1517-1544) and some special provisions of the Granada’s Chancery: "omezillo", guide and room and galleys letters (1520-1556)
Abstract
In this article we review, first of all, the legal actors with no legal expertise —no letrados— who practiced law in the Order of Santiago’s territories and the problems that their activity posed. As for the second subject, three types of special provisions emanating from the Granada Audiencia are studied: the order stating that the relatives of the deceased could kill their enemy, the perpetrator; the laissez-passer issued to those of its oidores or mayors who embarked on a trip, either for private visits, or for transfers to new destinations as well as for official actions; and, finally, the orders entrusted to the alguaciles de Corte in order to lead the galleys’ ropes from Granada to Malaga’s port.
