A minor being confirmed executor-dative to her father, and the inventory given up by her mother in her minority, is pursued for her father's debts. The minor offers to renounce all debt of the executry; but the pursuer alleged, that she cannot now renounce after confirmation. The Lords found she might renounce rebus integris.
Fol. Dic. v. 1. p. 582. Auchinleck, MS. p. 131.*** This case is also reported by Spottiswood:
In an action pursued by Alexander Drummond against Logan, spouse to Maxwell of Hills, as executrix confirmed to her father, for registration of a bond of her father's, the Lords found, that, in respect her father's testament dative was given up by her mother, she herself being minor, and that her mother had confirmed her executrix in her minority, and that she had never had any intromission with her father's goods, that therefore she might yet, being minor, renounce to be executrix, rebus integris, and therefore assoilzied.
