raising taxes without Parliament approval

Step-by-step explanation:

The following milestone recorded in the development of human rights was the Petition of Right, made in 1628 by the English Parliament and sent to Charles I as a declaration of civil liberties. The Parliament's refusal to finance the king's unpopular foreign policy had caused his government to demand forced loans and to hire troops in the homes of his subjects as an economic measure.

The Law Petition, initiated by Sir Edward Coke, was based on previous charters and letters and stated four principles:

1. No tribute can be imposed without the consent of Parliament
2. No subject can be imprisoned for no good reason
3. No soldier can be quartered in the homes of citizens
4. Martial Law can not be used in peacetime.
