Decreet being recovered against a party, and arrestment laid on thereupon in his debtor's hands, another decreet, at the instance of the pursuer's heir, transferring the title active in him, and, in the same sentence, decerning the party in whose hands the arrestment was used to make forthcoming, was found null, because they ought to have been done by two several pursuits, and two decreets; for if confusion of diets be a cause to annul proceedings of inferior judges, far more the confusion of sentences.
