He was present at the three French clergy councils in the 1390s called by King Charles the VI.
He was also a speaker at the Council of Pisa, where the members attempted to end the schism by electing a third pope.
Peter became sick and died before he could take part in the Council of Constance, which finally brought an end to the schism.
