Abbreviates are necessary now by the regulations 1696, upon adjudications in implement upon decreets cognitionis causa, as well as on adjudications introduced in place of apprising by the act 1672; and therefore horning against superiors was refused on such an adjudication without an abbreviate, me referente. The question first arose between the parties agent and Mr Inglis, depute-clerk of the bills, who stopt the bill of horning for want of the abbreviate: The constant style of the deliverance of these bills being, “Because the Lords have seen the decreet of adjudication and abbreviate thereof.” See the case of King, No. 35. (See Dict. No. 3. p. 204.)
