Mr Lockhart of Carnwath having set to James Ogston, writer in Edinburgh, a part of the lands of Walston, with power to him to subset the same with the consent of the heritor, obtained a decreet of removing against the Sub-tenants before the Sheriff of Lanerk, of which a bill of suspension was presented, on this, amongst other reasons, That the principal tacksman was not called; the Lord Ordinary “refused the bill;” and a reclaiming petition being presented,
“The Lords were of opinion, the Sub-tenants could not be removed, unless their author were called; and therefore remitted to the Ordinary to pass the bill.”
