Scope and content
Natale Barbara from Qrendi accuses Bernardino Mallia, from Qrendi, and Benedetto Zammit from Mqabba of deceit. Zammit implicated Barbara in a false contract of sale of immovable property to Mallia in the acts of Notary Johannes Petrus Attard (18/09/1639). The notary was then prosecuted for negligence and of breaching the terms of expected conduct for a notary. The land involved was called Il Ginen and was in Qrendi. Bernardino was sentenced to ten years' rowing in chains and against no remuneration on the galleys of the Order for 10 years, Benedetto for seven. The notary was fined 20 uncia. The case was appealed to the ACA by the Notary who claimed that he had been himself deceived due to his old age. The fine was reduced to 12 uncia.
