[Fac. Coll. IX. 449; Dict. 5294.]
Braxfield. Andrew Sutherland, being never more than an apparent heir, was never possessed of a subject capable of being affected by inhibition. The one arrestment could not affect a subject which did not belong to Andrew Sutherland: the other arrestment in the hands of the consignee is good.
On the 20th July 1786, “The Lords preferred Jean Sutherland primo loco for her provision of liferent, according to her contract of marriage and infeftment produced;” adhering to the interlocutor of Lord Elliock.
For G. Sutherland, Al. Elphinston.
Alt. C. Craigie.
