In an action of mails and duties at the instance of an adjudger, a third party appearing and producing a sasine in the lands, contended, that he had the benefit of a possessory judgment, in virtue of his possession, for more than half a century on that title. Answered, A sasine without its warrant, cannot avail in a competition of real rights. But the Lords sustained the defence, and assoilzied from the process of mails and duties, reserving to the pursuer to insist in a reduction of the defender's rights.
