The executors of a wife, who predeceased her husband, insisting for the defunct's share of the goods in communion, the husband craved deduction of the heirship moveables, which he alleged were heritable, and fell not under communion. Answered., Heirship moveables is not a nomen juris while the husband is alive.—The Lords found the heirship moveables could not be deducted. See Appendix.
