This case is a sequel of that reported, Fac. Coll. 19th June 1793, Oliphant against Oliphant.
Janet Oliphant, in consequence of the reservation in her favour in the interlocutor, stated in that report, brought an action against her two sisters by the former marriage, and against her brother, the heir of entail, concluding, as a posthumous child, for her share of the bond of provision.
The Lord Ordinary “Found her entitled to one-third of the provision in question.”
And, on advising a reclaiming petition and answers, the Court, proceeding on the grounds mentioned in the former report, with only one dissenting voice, “adhered.”
