Charles I signed the Petition of Right in 1628 primarily to secure funds for his government, as he was in need of money to finance military campaigns. The petition outlined specific constitutional grievances against the king's rule, including the imposition of taxes without parliamentary consent and the use of martial law. By signing it, Charles aimed to appease Parliament and gain their support, although he later disregarded its provisions, leading to further conflict between the monarchy and Parliament.

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.
Charles I is the king that refused to sign the Petition of Rights. When he asked Parliament to raise the taxes, they refused because he wouldn't sign the petition.
