The first matter had a jury upholding the younger Walter Devereux ‘s rights to common pasture in West Bromwich by inheritance from his mother, Sarah (de Offini) Devereux, who had inherited this from her grandfather, Richard de Offini. Walter Devereux the Younger's aunt, Margaret (de Offini) de Marnham's rights were also upheld on the same grounds. The court additionally upheld their shared rights to have free warren, fair market, and gallows for the manor of Bromwich. The right of ways was deferred to be heard before the king. In 1301, a Walter Devereux filed suit against Osbert and Margaret de Tamworth of West Bromwich, Richard le Parker, Richard de Wygemere, Ralph Swyft, Henry Dun, and William del Hull for cutting down his trees at West Bromwich. The next year Walter having not prosecuted his writ of novel disseisin against de Tamworth and his wife respecting his tenements in West Bromwich, was placed at the mercy of the court, but his fine was remitted at the instance of Edmund de Mortimer. In September 1304, Walter Devereux withdrew a suit against Agnes, widow of Roger de Somery, regarding his tenements in West Bromwich. Walter Devereux the Younger seems to have died about 1304 without an heir, and his estates passed to his cousin of the same name,

Devereus, John Pauncefot, Robert de Somerville, William Fraunceys, William de Mortymer, Nicholas de Huggeford, and thirty-seven others. None of the defendants appeared in court, and the Sheriff is ordered to detain them and bring them to the next court session. William de Upton sued Walter Devereux, Richard de Marham and his wife Margaret in 1276. This suit demonstrated that Walter's mother, Sarah de Offini, had died by this time. Upton claimed that a holder of a tenement should not be compelled to view a frankpledge outside of the area they resided. Around this time the Marnhams granted to Robert de Grete a portion of ‘hey’ in Bromwich that had previously been held by William de Wavere. This grant lay between the part of the ‘hey’ of Walter Devereux adjoining the highway from Bromwich church to Grete mill. The inquisition post-mortem of Roger de Somery in 1290 listed Walter Devereux and Richard de Marnham as holding fees from the Barony of Dudley for West Bromwich. Walter also held a manor at

Bromwich is endorsed by ‘Sarra and Hellis (Margaret), daughters of Richard de Bromwyz.’ Upon Richard’s death (West) Bromwich was inherited by his two daughters: Sarah (wife of Walter Devereux) and Margaret (wife of Richard de Marnham).
223:, Walter again probably followed his cousin's lead and went over to the Baronial side. On 28 October 1264 Walter Devereux was appointed sheriff of Herefordshire. On 20 May 1265 the issues of Herefordshire were committed to the care of ‘Walter de Everiis’ and this included the support of the constable of Hereford Castle. On 20 June 1265 Walter Devereux, sheriff of Herefordshire, was granted control of
