So my question is what would happen if some of Uthers subjects raided each other?
I have read several play write-ups where Levcomagus raids Salisbury during the Uther era.
I am aware that the Uther era is supposed to represent early middleages and that society is to be somewhat disorderly, and that feuds was somewhat legal, still i would think that you would be able to take such matters before the king.

Uther's reign is partly one of consolidation. In doing so, Uther is not working very hard to tick people off. Raiding definitely happens but you run into a number of problems...
-Evidence? (How many peasants can recognize which guy in metal it was...)
-Communication (Logres is big... it could take a few weeks to months to investigate and bring charges)
-History (pretty saturated with constant feuding between localities and lower lords)

If things get out of hand, Uther is likely to step in but remember that he may not side with the "righteous" party. He may need the villain far more. He's fighting a war.

What Kilgs said. I would add, that Uther expects his warlords to be strong enough to take care of thier own problems to some extent, and not come running to court whenever someonte steps on thier toes. So, given his lack of Justice (and patience) and the difficulties of proving what actually happened, he may well just dismiss the whole thing.

What the previous two posters said.

Also, I think Uther's view is also a bit of: "Boys will be boys." He doesn't have time to deal with every little issue in the kingdom and as long as the raiding/feuding is not significant enough to hamper the two sides when he calls them to war, it really doesn't matter all that much to him. Now, if Salisbury and Levcomagus were to gather their armies and start killing one another wholesale, that would be significant enough to get Uther involved, as Ulfius would have to get involved as well as the liegelord of Levcomagus. Since Ulfius is Uther's best pal, Roderick has some incentive to not let this happen, either. On the other hand, Roderick is one of the great nobles of the realm, too, so Uther needs him, too.

So I think that on both sides, there is an unspoken agreement to not escalate things so much that the King needs to get involved. Since the King would likely be unhappy with both sides and might end up punishing everyone!

What the last three guys said—plus a shameless plug for the Book of the Warlord, which may very well be available as early as... well—very, very soon now. This topic is addressed on p. 28!

Thanks for the replies.
Levcomagus raided our knights last session, but decided on making the raid a bit covert. Now the knights are struggling with conflicting evidence about whether or not Levcomagus is the perpetrator, making sir Blaise seem all the more dubious*.
