A decree of certification, in a reduction and improbation, was recalled upon the 20th article of the regulations 1695, which requires that certificates in absence shall remain unextracted for the space of four weeks after pronouncing. Here it was understood to be in absence, a procurator being marked by the clerk at random, who was not the defender's oridinary procurator. See Appendix.
