CASES DECIDED IN THE HOUSE OF LORDS, ON APPEAL FROM THE COURTS OF SCOTLAND, 1824.
1 st Division.
No. 5.
Subject_Bankrupt — Sequestration. —
An appeal dismissed against an order in a sequestration for choosing commissioners, after an appeal entered against a judgment awarding sequestration, which had in the meanwhile been affirmed.
The Court of Session having sequestrated the estate of the appellant, as falling under the Bankrupt Act, he entered an appeal to the House of Lords; and the respondent, Kerr, having thereafter been appointed trustee, the Court authorized him to take possession of the estates in the meanwhile, in terms of the Bankrupt Statute, and granted warrant for holding a meeting of creditors to elect commissioners. * Against this order the appellant entered another appeal, on the ground that, pending the other appeal, it ought not to be enforced. That appeal, however, was dismissed on the 26th of July 1822, (see ante, Vol. I. p. 254.); and in this appeal the House of Lords “ordered and adjudged, that the appeal be dismissed, and the interlocutor complained of affirmed, with L.50 costs.”
