| A similar policy had been implemented by the bakufu before the Einin no Tokuseirei with an act issued in March 1284 which specified that any suit over appeal made directly to a senior official without going through formalities should not be accepted, but it was withdrawn in 1298. |
永仁徳政令以前にも類似した政策は行われており、弘安7年（1284年）3月に幕府は越訴に関する訴訟を不受理とする法令を発令し、翌永仁6年には撤回している。 |
