In England the anti-papal preaching of John Wyclif supported the opposition of the king and the higher clergy to Boniface IX's habit of granting English benefices as they fell vacant to favorites in the Roman Curia.

In this way the hereditary right of presentation to a benefice came to be called in English an advowson (Lat. advocatio).

Even at the most extreme devolution of any remnants of central power, in 10th-century France, the majority of vassals still had no fixed estates.

An "upper" group comprised great territorial magnates, who were strong enough to ensure the inheritance of their benefice to the heirs of their family.

Reception of administration by a chapter without such letters brings excommunication reserved to the pope, together with privation of the fruits of the benefice; and the nominee loses ipso facto all right to the prelacy.
