In an action of spuilzie pursued at the instance of Lisk against Scot, upon this ground, That Scot having set to Lisk a house in Aberdeen, and Lisk having entered to possession of the said house, the landlord, within three months after Whitsunday, before there was a term's mail due, excluded Lisk from possession of the house, by putting a padlock thereon, and so secluded him from the use of his moveables, and refused to allow him entrance to the house;—the Lords sustained the spuilzie, and allowed Lisk juramentum in litem.
