In an action of reduction pursued, by the deceased James Earl of Home's creditors against his mother and executors, for reduction of certain bonds and discharges libelled, as being given in lecto ægritudinis, and of all other bonds in general made by him at that time;—it was alleged by the defender, That this general clause could not be sustained, nor could certification be granted thereupon, as is usual in improbations; but all the writs called for to be produced and reduced should be condescended upon in the libel, The Lords refused to grant certification upon this general clause.
