A Defender having proponed peremptory defences, which would have subjected him to the passive titles, if libelled, but no passive title being libelled, save that of lawfully charged to enter heir, and yet no charge produced, which the proponing peremptors could not infer an acknowledgment of, since it never was; the Lords refused to allow the pursuer to amend his libel, by inserting the other passive titles, in order to conclude the defender as to these.
