Statutory Receiver: a receiver whose appointment is provided for in a statute. An officer in the ROYAL household who collected revenues and disbursed them in a lump sum to the treasurer, and who also acted as an attorney with the power to appear in any court in England. The monarch and his or her consort each had a receiver, thus the full title was King's Receiver or QUEEN'S RECEIVER.
