A process once commenced does not fall in less than 40 years, unless where the time is shortened by particular statute; and therefore, after a process of declarator was raised, which lay over, and then was taken up again, the defender's answer was not found sufficient, that he a churchman had decennalis et triennalis possessio, since the commencement of the process.
Fol. Dic. v. 2. p. 130. Stair.
*** This case is No 4. p. 5620, voce Homolocation.
*** A similar decision was pronounced in the case of a process of compt and reckoning against tutors and curators, though it had lien over more than ten years, December 1731, Creditors of Libberton against his Tutors and Curators. See Appendix.
