Enacted by the chapter general at Avignon 5 March, 1367:
BNCF Ms. Magl. cl. XXXII, 37, fol. 41r.
Quod consuetudo non valeat contra stabilimentum.
Ad evitandum contentiones est declaratum per istud capitulum generale, quod usagium non valeat contra statutum scriptum, et ubi non reperietur stabilimentum, valeat usagium.
