In the suspension by Christian Davie and James —— against James Wright, the reason was alleged against the decreet, That the said Davie could not be summoned to give her oath for the maill libelled, because her husband was never summoned, but was out of the country. To the which it was answered, That the marriage had intervened since the intention of the process; by the which it was referred to her oath; and the changing of her estate by marriage non debet mutare judicium. The Lords desired to try the date of the summons and litiscontestation.
