In this period, Ockham also began his ''Quodlibeta'', completed in Avignon c.1325, and revised his ''Sentences'' commentary (resulting in the ''Ordinatio'', the version of the commentary that Ockham defended before the examination committee in Avignon). Ockham encountered opposition to the work he completed in England, even from fellow friars such as Walter Chatton, whose students accused Ockham of heresy. This Franciscan opposition probably also led to Ockham’s appearance before the provincial chapter of 1323.
