Petition of Rights
During the battle to get the Petition of Right ratified, King Charles I attempted to restrict the right of Parliament members to speak freely. The Petition of Right, which Charles I eventually did have to sign, was to restrict his powers with reference to non-Parliamentary taxation, forced billeting of soldiers, imprisonment without cause, and the use of martial law.
