From the British Academy description:

Published Information: See Bibliothèque Nationale, Catalogue général des Manuscrits Latins, t. VI (Paris: Bibliothèque Nationale, 1975), pp. 468-9, also here. Dates MS to end of 14th century. Several hands. Some marginal corrections. Apparently belonged to Cardinal Pierre de Luna before his election [in 1394, during the great schism, as Benedict XIII in the Avignon line]; passed by means of Cardinal Pierre de Foix to the College de Foix at Toulouse.
Observations: Part of page used for text on fols. 234-270 is shorter. There is a gap (but no loss of text) between 95v and 97r (=Ly 94rb 17).
The three parts could originally have been separate manuscripts. 1 Dial. ends on 208r, which is the fifth folio of a 6-folio gathering; 208v is blank, and so is the sixth folio (209rv), except for probationes pennae. 3.2 Dial. begins on 210r, the first folio of a new gathering. 3.2 Dial. ends on 287r, which is the fifth folio of a 6-folio gathering; 287v is blank, and so is the sixth folio (288rv). 2 Dial. begins on fol, 289r, the first folio of a new gathering. 3.2 Dial. is written in a new hand (210r); 2 Dial. may be in a new hand (289r). The three parts are out of order, 3.2 Dial. before 2 Dial.
Collation shows that in 1 Dial. Pc belongs to the family that includes Pa Pb Va Vg. In 3.2 Dial. 3, Pc ends (287r) with "antistitem" (see End of 3.2 Dial.).
