In an action of contravention betwixt the Sheriff of Forrest and Malcolm Turnbull, the Lords sustained an exception founded upon a discharge given by Malcolm Turnbull after the intenting of the cause, and found that it should prejudge also the King's Advocate; and when the Town of Selkirk alleged they never made assignee before, and desired to be admitted for their interests, the Lords refused to admit them.
