In James Cleland's improbation against David Richardson; the Lords, upon a bill given in by David, ordain James to give back the decreet of certification extracted by him against David's comprising, the said David paying the expense of the said decreet of certification, and producing the writs called for within twenty-four hours; otherwise ordain the certification to stand in force against him. The reason of reponing him so summarily was, because he instructed, by Adam Christie, under-clerk, that the writs were in his hands lying in another process, whereby David judged himself secure.
