Date: Act of Sederunt

The Lords thought fit to make an Act of Sederunt, and to intimate it to the advocates, to the purpose following, viz.:—That when an allegeance is not admitted, but a joint probation is allowed before answer; if there be any other allegeance
found relevant, and admitted to either, litiscontestation should be understood to be made as to that allegeance. 2. And likewise as to that effect, that the parties are concluded; and cannot be heard thereafter to propone any other allegeance. 3. The terms being run as to allegeance not discussed, they are concluded as to the probation of it; as if the relevancy had been discussed by a formal act of litiscontestation: whereas it is remitted to be considered after probation: seeing often ex facto oritur jus; and, upon consideration of the circumstances after probation, the Lords have more clearness to determine relevancy.
