Albeit an irritant clause be committed, whereby a party is obliged to relieve his cautioner of certain sums, and, for his relief, infefts him in his lands, with a condition, that in case he relieve him not, the reversion shall expire;—the Lords sometimes grant a term to the party, to purge the irritant clause; and, in case he purge it not, that the person who sought the declarator should pay the debts for the which he was infeft.
Sometimes a term is not granted, by reason of an Act of Sederunt, wherein it is declared, that the Lords will decern anent irritant clauses, according to the precise words of the condition.
