Wilson having obtained decree against Miller, of which Miller obtained suspension, in which caution, as usual, had been found, Wilson arrested Miller's effects wherever he could find them; which the suspender having laid before the Lords by a summary complaint, as a contempt of authority,
The Lords “found no ground for the complaint, and refused the desire thereof.”
No law hinders one to arrest or inhibit notwithstanding a passed suspension. The effect of a suspension passed, is only to turn the decree to a depending process, on which arrestment and inhibition may proceed.
