This being a process of sale of the effects of a copartnery, (a rope manufactory) consisting not only of the materials, but of houses and debts, in order to a division,—it seemed very doubtful whether we could order a sale of the houses and debts upon a process communi dividundo, where the defenders opposed it, or as in this case were absent and infants; since houses might be possessed pro indiviso, as in the case of heirs-portioners and others, and debts might be divided or uplifted by a factor, and the sale was not founded upon either of the acts 1681 on 1695. However the Lords found they could appoint a sale, and did it accordingly.
