Did Robin Hood became a fugitive?

In the earliest sources of the Robin Hood legend, which are ballads, a King Edward makes Robin Hood one of his yeomen. This is most likely Edward II, who had a real Robyn Hod as his valet and porter. I base my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles on the identity of the Robin Hood of the ballads and the Robyn Hod of Edward II's court. Robyn Hod had been a man-at-arms for Thomas, Earl of Lancaster, in Thomas's attempt to overthrow Edward II; Thomas was defeated in the Battle of Boroughbridge in 1322, and at that time Edward declared all of Thomas's soldiers were outlaws and sent his soldiers to hunt them down. This made Robin Hood a fugitive.
