Sir William Dunbar and others gave in a summary complaint against a judgment of the freeholders of Caithness, for having refused to strike Sir James Sinclair off the roll, though he had succeeded to the peerage of Caithness. The Lords found the complaint competent, and allowed the complainers to bring proof of their allegation.
