Mr. Thomas Rigg, advocate, being pursued by Garden of Troup, as assignee by Mr. John Arrat, for certain bills accepted by him, payable to Arrat; objected the nullity, that they bore interest from the date, with a fifth part as penalty.
The Lords found, “That the defender being, at the date of the bills, Mr. Arrat's ordinary lawyer and adviser, he was thereby barred from proponing the objection.”
