In a process of removing a tutor-testamentary as suspect, for that he had not made up inventories conform to act of Parliament,
Alleged for the defender, that the defunct gave up inventory himself of all his estate, which consisted of moveables, and the confirmation of the testament was a sufficient notification to the pupil and his friends of the estate.
The Lords found, That the tutor ought to have given up inventories, &c. but, in respect of the dubietas juris, allowed him to purge the mora and make inventories before extracting.
