Explanation:

The Petition of Right was a significant constitutional document in English history. It was presented to Charles I in 1628. The Parliament wanted to limit the king's powers, especially regarding forced loans (a form of taxation without Parliament's consent), arbitrary imprisonment, and the quartering of soldiers in private homes. Charles I, facing opposition from Parliament and needing funds for his policies, was compelled to sign it.
James II reigned later (1685 - 1688) and was involved in the Glorious Revolution. King John signed the Magna Carta in 1215. James I was Charles I's father and reigned from 1603 - 1625.

Answer:

Charles I
