Mr Cornelius Inglis pursuing a removing against certain tenants near Dunbar, upon an infeftment and apprising, it was alleged for the tenants, that they were tenants to Mr Roger Hogg by payment of mail and duty to him, and he was not called. The pursuer answered, non relevat, unless the defenders condescend upon Mr Roger's right, which might defend him and them. The defenders answered, 1st, That they could not be obliged to dispute their master's right, but he ought to be called to dispute his own right, 2dly, It was insinuate, that Mr Roger had an apprising, and a charge against the superior.
The Lords repelled the defence, unless the defenders condescended upon such a right as were valid to exclude the pursuer, being prior to his; but the tenants alleged no such right, and Mr Roger's charge was posterior to the pursuer's infeftment.
