In a multiplepoinding a riding claim was tendered on behalf of creditors of a claimant who had obtained decree for payment, but had not extracted it. The Lord Ordinary refused to allow the claim to be received, on the ground that he could not give two decrees for the same sum to different claimants, and that to render a riding claim admissible it must be lodged before the original claimant had obtained a decree for payment.
