William Dick sought exhibition of one's writs from whom he had comprised certain lands, to the end that he might form himself a charter upon his comprising, which was refused him likewise.
Spottiswood, (Exhibition) p. 123.*** Durie reports this case:
In an action for exhibition and delivery of writs of comprised lands, at the instance of William Dick, against Skeldon, haver of the writs, the Lords found, that a compriser not infeft could not call for delivery of charters and sasines of lands, nor such real rights, himself not being really infeft, but that he might call for production of contracts and bonds, the same being comprised; and also found, that a compriser could not seek production of any writs of lands comprised, nor the same to be copied to him, except the party from whom he comprised had been called to that pursuit.
