Court of Session Inner House Second Division.
Robert Grant presented a note to the Second Division craving a remit to the reporters on the probabilis causa litigandi to consider his application for admission to the poor's roll. He stated in his note—“The petitioner being desirous of admission to the poor's roll to enable him to carry on a lawsuit against the Parochial Board of Abernethy,” but did not state the nature of the proposed action. The respondent objected that the note was incompetent in respect that the nature of the proposed action was not stated therein, and quoted the case of Duncan, January 28, 1846, 8 D. 411.
The Court ordered the petition to be amended to the effect of stating the nature of the action.
Counsel for Petitioner— Gardner. Agent— R. J. Finlay, S.S.C.
