Re: what does this mean
I don't precisely know - but I do know that it may not be spelled in a way
that would match up with the term in google.
Maybe it would help if you transcribed the document for us exactly as it is
spelled, with the original grammar.

"Plenary session" would make sense. I don't know if it makes any kind of
sense in context - is there another kind of session that would make sense?

Plenar Seisin
_Plener Seisin_ means full possession of real property under claim of
freehold estate. It marks the completion of the feudal investiture and
the tenant, who is now in full possession, was then expected to perform
the rights of homage and fealty..
Or does your version actually read "Primer Seisin"?
Our English verb _to seize_ has the same roots -- the Middle English
verb _saisen_ , the Anglo-French _seisir_ and the Mediaeval Latin
_sacire_.
This is an infinitive that should not be split. <g>
Today we simply speak of someone who holds real property in fee simple.

Re: Plenar Seisin
Recte:
_Plenar Seisin_ means full possession of real property under claim of
freehold estate. It marks the completion of the feudal investiture and
the tenant, who is now in full possession, was then expected to perform
the rights of homage and fealty.
Think of the English words _plenty_, _plentiful_, _plentitude_
[_plenitude_] and _plenipotentiary_.
Or does your version actually read "Primer Seisin"?
Our English verb _to seize_ has the same roots -- the Middle English
verb _saisen_ , the Anglo-French _seisir_ and the Mediaeval Latin
_sacire_.
This is an infinitive that should not be split. <g>

"Seisin" is a legal term for possession of land. Presumably "plenar" is
short for "plenary", so this means "full seisin". I'm not sure what the
