Decreet-Arbitral betwixt two parties having mutual claims determining them all, and L.5 sterling to be paid by one party being passed from by the parties verbally, the question was, whether there was locus pænitentiæ, since it was not passed from by writing. On the one hand, as to the L.5 sterling, it was pactum liberatorium. But then on the other hand, the setting aside the decreet-arbitral was rearing up all the former claims hinc inde; and sopiting of pleas was favourable. The Lords found that it could not be passed from verbally.
