In a process at the instance of Sir John Home of Rentoun, Justice-Clerk, against the feuars of Coldinghame; the defenders offered to improve the executions.
It was answered, They could not be heard, unless they would propone the said allegeance peremptorie; but that the same should be reserved by way of action.
The Lords, for avoiding the multiplying of processes, obliged them to propone the exception of improbation peremptorie: but the same being prior natura, and competent to be proponed before any other in meritis causæ;; and yet being now proponed peremptorie, in form of process, being the last of exceptions; —The Lords admitted the defenders to propone their other exceptions, and reserved that to the last place.
