In the reduction and improbation at the instance of Bognie against the Earl of Leven, the Lords allowed a condescendence of writs in publica custodia, offered by the defender, after extracting of an act for the first term, before an act for the second term was extracted, to be received to stop certification; because, so long as any term for production was current, the pursuer had time to search whether the writs called for were so registrated, and to get a warrant for transmitting the principals, if he had use for them; and if the writs in the condescendence were not upon record, he might extract his act and crave certification.
