That if any Cause be called by anticipation out of its due place the Pursuers Advocat may refuse to insist or the Defenders Advocat to answer and it shall be a sufficient defence that he is not oblidged to answer before its due course in the Roll And although neither parties Advocats should object seing others who were anterior in the Roll are prejudged the Clerks are prohibit to write on any such Process called out of its own course or to extract any Act or Decreet thereupon 13. That the Lords of Session every Session go near the discussing of all Causes enrolled that Session and that as they see their work by the Books of enrollment they meet the sooner in the morning and also meet in the afternoon for taking in Reports from the Outer-house which requires not the attendance of Advocats and which consumes much of the time both in the Inner and Outer-house in the forenoon and also for advising of concluded Causes which of all other should be least delayed 14.

To the effect the Lords of Session may be in better capacity to discuss the Processes which come before them not being overburdened with small and inconsiderable Causes That all Causes not exceeding the value of two hundred Merks Scots be in the first instance carried on before the inferiour Judges And that no Summons be raised upon Bill or otherwayes for Causes of less importance for which the Clerk of the Bills and Writers to the Signer are to be answerable at their peril except there be such reasons condescended on in the Bill as would be sufficient to procure an Advocation of the Cause from the inferior Judge in behalf of a Defender and competent Instructions thereof And that such Bills do not pass of course but be specially presented and read to the Ordinary and that the deliverance on the back thereof bear Because the Lords have found suficient ground for which the Cause ought not in the first instance to be pursued before the inferiour Judge Ordinar but before the Lords Excepting also the Causes belonging to the Members of the Colledge of Justice and except Sums due to Merchants Cooks Vintners and others in Burgh for Furniture taken off from them by such as dwell not within the Shire where the Furniture was taken off 17. That where Causes are begun before inferior Courts no Advocation thereof shall be past being of no greater importance then as aforesaid otherwayes then is provided by the Act of Parliament And that the Clerk of the Bills be answerable therefore not to present pass or write on any such Bill at his peril 18. That where Decreets are past before inferior Courts and craved to be suspended if the reasons proceed not on iniquity but upon alledgiance that the Decreet was in absence so that the craver of the Suspension hath never appeared or hath not continued to defend while there was no injustice done Then and in that case he shall be oblieged at the passing of the Bill of Suspension to consign in the hands of the Clerk of the Bills such sums for the expences of the Party as the passer of the Bill shall appoint according to the importance of the Cause and the distance of the Party which shall be given up to the Charger if the Suspender hath not compeared or continued to defend before the inferior Court as said is and that immediately at the calling of the Cause to be discust when the compearance in the Decreet may appear unless the Suspender improve the Executions of the Summons whereupon the Decreet did proceed 19. That Decreets in foro contradictorio before the Lords of Session be not again suspended upon reasons competent to have been proponed or which were repelled in the former Decreet And to the effect it may be known with the least expence what Decreets are in foro That the Keeper of the Minute-book make up a Book of the Decreets in foro according as the same shall each day be given in to him by the Clerks expressing the names of all the Defenders for whom there is compearance And that the Clerk of the Bills from time to time call for and receive a double of the said minute-Minute-book of Decreets in foro And when any Bill of Suspension is to be presented by him that at his peril he write on no Suspension of any Decreet in foro contained in the said Book untill it be presented to the whole Lords in time of Session and to three met together in time of vacance the deliverance bearing that they were met together And where there is once compearance for any Party and Defences proponed the Decreet shall be holden as done in foro and all the Dispute proponed by the Advocats shall be insert therein albeit the Advocat thereafter past from his compearance And that the first Protestation shall not be suspended but upon consignation of thirty pounds and the Suspension thereof shall bear that it is the second Suspension And so forth all the Suspensions that shall be obtained thereafter shall bear that the same is the third or fourth Suspension and that no Suspension shall pass of the second Protestation but in presence of the whole Lords in time of Session and by
