The Clameur de Haro (French pronunciation: [klamœʁ də aʁo]), is an ancient legal injunction of restraint employed by a person who believes they are being wronged by another at that moment.
It survives as a fully enforceable law to this day in the legal systems of Jersey and Guernsey, and is used, albeit infrequently, for matters affecting land.
The Clameur was perhaps most famously used by a landowner named Asselin FitzArthur to object to the burial of William the Conqueror. The procedure is performed on one's knees before at least two witnesses, in the presence of the wrong-doer, and in the location of the offence. The Criant with his hand in the air must call out — Haro! Haro! Haro! À l'aide, mon Prince, on me fait tort. (Hear me! Hear me! Hear me! Come to my aid, my Prince, for someone does me wrong.) Following this, the Criant must recite the Lord's Prayer in French. Notre Père qui est aux cieux. Ton nom soit sanctifié. Ton règne vienne. Ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel. Donne-nous aujourd'hui notre pain quotidien. Et nous pardonne nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons à ceux qui nous ont offensés. Et ne nous induis point en tentation, mais délivre-nous du mal.
On hearing this, the alleged wrong-doer must cease his challenged activities until the matter is adjudicated in court. Failure to stop will lead to the imposition of a fine, whether they were in the right or not. If the Criant is found to have called Haro without a valid reason, he in turn must pay a penalty.
The Clameur in Guernsey requires that a Grace be said after the Lord's Prayer: La Grâce de Notre Seigneur Jésus Christ, la dilection de Dieu et la sanctification de Saint Esprit soit avec nous tous éternellement. Amen.
Furthermore, the grievance must be put in writing and lodged at the Greffier within 24 hours.
