The King has a verdict against A. for debt or damages ; before judgment, the King pardons this debt and damages to A. the King shall have judgment. So it is between common persons. But because that neither a scire facias lies against the King for A. if he be in execution, nor an audita querela if he be not in execution : this pardon and release shall be allowed to discharge the execution.
