Welcome to the Fief Blondel ™

The Last American Seigneur Advocate. ™

(Fief Thomas Blondel Est. 1179) - Bailiwick of Guernsey- Channel Islands Normandy

The Fief of Thomas Blondel in the parishes of St Pierre du Bois (St. Peter of the Wood) and of Notre Dame de Torteval or (Torteval) along with the Fief de l'Eperon of Torteval is an authentic Norman title. See Digital Map: Guernsey Fiefs (arcgis.com) 

In 12th Century Kingdom of France, the term baronnie or Baron was generally applied to all lords or seigneurs possessing an important fief, but later in the 13th century the title of Baron meant that the holder held his  Fief directly from the Crown and was thus more important than a count since counts were typically vassals

The Seignuers (Free Lords) of Blondel hold their fief direct from the crown and the Fief Blondel with its Privy Seal existed before formal Baronial titles were created.  Fief Blondel is part of the former large Fief of Canelly, once held by the Kings of France and Rollo the Viking, The Fiefs of Guernsey have an amazing history as part of France and with the separation of Guernsey from French Normandy in 1204.

We would like to welcome you to our Ancient Fief and to our international feudal website. The 18th Lord Seigneur of Blondel is the Commissioner and Counselor George Mentz JD MBA CILS CWM

Mentz is an international lawyer and wealth management professor who remains a Smirk2 student  of French, Civil and International Law. It is an honor to hold the noble land designation of Seigneur of one of the last remaining legal fiefs in the world. The Fief   Blondel further includes the:  Fief Blondel territory in the parishes of St Pierre du Bois and of Notre Dame de Torteval along with the Fief de l'Eperon, the Bouvée Phlipot Pain, lying in the said parish of St Pierre duBois, and the Bouvée Torquetil and Bouvée  Bourgeon lying in the said parish of Torteval.

It was wonderful to go through the ancient legal process with the Royal Courts and registering the Fief Blondel through legal Conveyance and paying the Duty, Treizième & Congé, and Jurats fee, and Fief Permission Fees to Her Majesty's Crown, HM Receiver &  HM Clerk and Courts.

The Seigneurs and Dames of the Ancient Fiefs have been asked in 2022 to join the Court of Chief Pleas that is run by the Crown's Government. All of the lords temporal and spiritual show up to the Ancient Royal Court to proclaim attendance. The Courts have existed since Guernsey was part of France over 800 years ago where the Courts were held at St. Michael in 1204. These may be the oldest courts in the world still in operation. To this day, the Royal Courts invite Seigneurs and Dames (Free Tenants) of the ancient Guernsey fiefs to pay suit to the court. The Chiefs or Lord Seigneurs have been in existance in Guernsey for more than 800 years. Year 1179 provides us with the key to many puzzles. It proves the existence of a Royal Court in Guernsey at that date, a curia regis presided over by a vicomte.
The Vicomte's Court was a feudal court in which the Seigneurs or tenants-in-chief of the Fiefs, the notables of the district, sat as assessors under the presidency of the vicomte as they sat in the courts of the Anglo-Norman Sheriffs of the period.
The oldest Courts of Guernsey can be traced back to the 9th century. The principal court is the Royal Court and exercises both civil and criminal jurisdiction. Additional courts, such as the Magistrate's Court, which deals with minor criminal matters, and the Court of Appeal, which hears appeals from the Royal Court, have been added to the Island's legal system over the years.
A projet de loi is the equivalent of a UK bill or a French projet de loi, and a law is the equivalent of a UK act of parliament or a French loi. A draft law passed by the States can have no legal effect until formally approved by Her Majesty in Council and promulgated by means of an order in council.[50] Laws are given the Royal Sanction at regular meetings of the Privy Council in London, after which they are returned to the islands for formal registration at the Royal Court. The States also make delegated legislation known as Ordinances (Ordonnances) and Orders (ordres) which do not require the Royal Assent.
