Blackstock pursued Mackay before the courts in Jamaica for payment of a debt, where Mackay found caution. Happening, some time after, to be in this country, Blackstock obtained a warrant of incarceration against him, until he should find caution, judicio sisti, for the same debt. This procedure was found by the Lords to be nimious ; for that Blackstock having once elected his forum, and obtained caution, he could not desert the lis pendens ; nor, on Mackay's coming accidentally to this country, attach his person, and drag him before another forum here.
