The Duchess of Lauderdale pursues James Steill, her coal-grieve, to remove from a house. Alleged,—He could not be removed between terms, and he had made sundry reparations thereon. Answered,—He was in mala fide. Yet l. 38 D. de Petit, Hæredit. allows even prædonem deducere impensas utiles et necessarias.
The Lords, on Edmonston's report, superseded execution of the removing till Whitsunday, and ordained the meliorations to be visited and valued.
