In the suspension by Christian Davie, and James Gibsone, her spouse, against James Wricht, the reason was, that decreet was given against her, clad with a husband, he being out of the country, and not cited. Whereto it was answered, That litiscontestation was made in the cause before their marriage, and referred to her oath, &c. suppose there intervened before the decreet meikle of a year, and suppose the marriage was celebrated a half-year before the said decreet; quia subsequens matrimonium non debet deteriorem facere actoris conditionem, judicio sic mutato. And the Lords sustained the decreet.
