Executors of the Duke of Queensberry

Entail.

Sequel of the case noticed ante, Vol. VI. No. 253. p. 706, (which see.) By the judgment there pronounced, the Court repelled the objection to the competency of the action, that an heir of entail could not insist for any other redress than that afforded by the entail, and particularly for reparation of damage sustained by acts of the heir in possession, in violation of the terms of the entail; but ‘with reference to the question whether such action lies where the heir is not lucratus,’ they remitted to the Lord Ordinary to prepare the cause. A record having been made up, and the question having been reported on Cases, and the parties being at issue as to the fact whether the heir had been lucratus or not, the Court remitted the cause to the Jury Court.
