Court of Session Inner House First Division.

Tuesday, February 11. 1867.

5 SLR 241

Macfarlane,

v.

Petitioner.

Subject_1Diligence
Subject_2Arrestment
Subject_3Dependence
Subject_4Recal.
Facts:

Arrestment used on the dependence, against private estate of a party, recalled, on the ground that the dependence on which the arrestment was used was a dependence against the party solely in the character of executrix.

Headnote:

This was a petition for recal of arrestments. An action had been raised against Macfarlane, but he having died, a summons of transference was raised against his widow, Arrestments were used on the dependence against her private means and estate. She petitioned for recal.

Judgment:

Clark and Lee for her.

N. C. Campbell in reply.

The Court unanimously recalled the arrestment on the ground that the dependence, as appearing from the closed record, was a dependence against the petitioner as executrix of her deceased husband, and in no other character, and therefore was not a dependence that would justify arrestment against her private means and estate.

Solicitors: Agents for Petitioner— A. & A. Campbell, W.S.
