Why did Charles 1st of England ignore the Petition of RIght How could he do that?

Charles I of England ignored the Petition of Right because he believed in the divine right of kings, viewing the petition as an infringement on his royal authority. He maintained that his power was absolute and that he could govern without parliamentary consent. Additionally, he employed various tactics, such as dissolving Parliament and ruling without it for extended periods, which allowed him to sidestep the petition’s stipulations and consolidate his power. This defiance ultimately contributed to the tensions leading to the English Civil War.
