It being objected to the competency of an advocation, that the process was finished before the Sheriff by a decree; and, therefore, that a suspension was the only competent remedy: The objection was repelled upon the ground of utility, an advocation being a more easy remedy than a suspension, and equally susceptible of being remitted with an instruction. An extract indeed must bar advocation, because after extract the cause cannot be remitted.
