A wife being pursued as vitious intromitter with goods in Scotland belonging to her husband, who lived and died in England;
Answered, The defender was administratrix to her husband in England (the same thing as executrix confirmed in Scotland) and mobilia sequuntur personam. 2do, As super intromission is purged of a vitious passive title by a prior confirmation, so, a pari, the letters of administration were a putative title that ought to purge the vice.
Replied, The administration gave no right to goods extra territorium.
The Lords found the administration purged the vitiosity.
