| Marshall v. Youngson |
1798
|
Procurator, Court of Session, Agent, Interlocutor, Clerks of Session, Jurisdiction |
James Marshall, Writer to the Signet, petitioned the Court to alter a recent interlocutor respecting the offices held by Alexander Youngson. Youngson answered, defending his concurrent practice as procurator before the High Court of Admiralty and Writer to the Signet on the ground that the two roles were not incompatible. The dispute turned on whether the office of Writer to the Signet could be held consistently with acting as a procurator in the Admiralty Court. |
