(1818) 2 Murray 60
CASES TRIED IN THE JURY COURT.
No. 10.
v.
PRESENT,
A Jury dismissed of consent, without returning a verdict.
In this case, after the Jury were sworn, but before the case was opened for the pursuer, the parties agreed to a compromise.
Mr Jeffrey proposed, that the Jury should of consent find a verdict in terms of the compromise. This was objected to on the other side.

Counsel then gave in a minute, consenting that the Jury should be dismissed; and upon this consent, Lord Pitmilly granted an order accordingly.
Solicitors: (Agents, William Ellis, and John Young, Jun.)
