Inquisition proceedings involving Pieter de Pannemaeker
Pieter de Pannemaeker and Bernard van Orley were brought before the Inquisition at Leuven after attending Protestant sermons by the Lutheran preacher Claes van der Elst. Pieter was initially deprived of his title and later allowed to continue after agreeing to pay an annual fine. This was a religious disciplinary proceeding rather than a modern commercial scandal.
