Court of Session Inner House First Division.
Facts:
This was a Special Case, one of the parties to which died after the case had been sent to the roll. A note was then presented to the Court for the purpose of having the representatives of the deceased sisted as parties to the case. The Court refused to sist, and, on the ground that a Special Case is of the nature of a contract, held that the proper course was for the representatives of the deceased themselves, or counsel instructed for them, to sign the Case.
Counsel for First Parties— Pearson. Agents — J. & F. Anderson, W.S.
Counsel for Second Parties— Dickson. Agents — Curror & Cowper, S.S.C.
