==Facts== In January 1397, Sir [[Thomas Haxey]] presented a petition to Parliament, criticising the costs of King [[Richard II of England]]'s household. The king was affronted and, with the collusion of [[Thomas Arundel]], insisted that Haxey be punished for [[treason]]. Haxey was deprived of his title and his possessions. However, the king went on to pardon Haxey, and it has been suggested that the case was deliberately orchestrated to criminalize criticism of the king.
