Biography

He graduated from the University of Douai and was called to the bar of the Council of Brabant. Kinschot married Marguerite, daughter of Adrien Boote, and in 1630, succeeded his father-in-law as treasurer general and chief of finance to Albert VII, Archduke of Austria.

Under Philip IV of Spain, he was appointed a member of the Council of State and a knight of the Order of Santiago. In 1649 he succeeded Ferdinand de Boisschot as Chancellor of Brabant. He died in 1651.[2]

gollark: Yes, and we will get to watch as it's upheld as somehow *not* being unreasonable.
gollark: Yes, and I don't care, because I think that's a misinterpretation of it.
gollark: ```The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.```This fourth amendment thingy does sound slightly relevant.
gollark: And this *could easily be* and is *already a breach of privacy*.
gollark: Yes, that is also bad.
