Fraud of the author found competent against the singular successor in personal rights, or in incomplete real rights of lands, even though that author had an infeftment, since that infeftment was null as flowing from a person not infeft;—and a decreet of reduction against the author, though it was not sustained as res judicata against the successor, because he had been convened, and obtained a decreet of absolvitor in that very process of reduction, (but founded on an error in fact;) yet the proof there led was found good evidence in this process, but prejudice to the defender to elide it.
