[2] According to an undated royal charter by Ladislaus IV, possibly around 1286, the King authorized Lodomer, Archbishop of Esztergom to excommunicate Paul and Nicholas, if they would confiscate two-thirds part of the trade customs in Komárom which were entitled to the Bakonybél Abbey.
[1] After 1296, King Andrew III, who intended to establish an alliance among the local noblemen against the oligarchs – most notably Matthew Csák and the Kőszegis, started negotiations with Nicholas and Paul, among others.
[3] Nicholas served as an ad-litem judge during a lawsuit in the case of Óbecse (today Bečej in Serbia) in June 1297, along with Emeric, Bishop of Várad, Master of the treasury Dominic Rátót, Stephen Ákos and Voivode Roland Borsa.
As these all persons were members of the alliance which struggled against Matthew Csák, historian Krisztina Tóth argued initially Nicholas would have been that lord with whom King Andrew intends to contract.
However Nicholas died shortly afterwards, and his brother Paul became one of the five barons in 1298, who entered into a formal feudal alliance with their King against the oligarchs and the bishops' college.
