| Arbutnott, et al. v. Scott, et al. | 1794 | Proof, Res judicata, Interlocutor, Salmon Fishing, Mill, Aliment | Arbutnott and others pursued Scott and others regarding a dam-dike that superior heritors claimed intercepted fish passage in violation of statutory regulations, while the defenders insisted the structure was a necessary check-dike for their mills. The petitioners sought alteration of a recent interlocutor, and the superior heritors informed the court that the dike was constructed to obstruct fish rather than supply water. The defenders maintained that alteration would injure their milling rights, and subsequently petitioned to be assoilzied, challenging the relevancy of the condescendence and the competency of the additional report and depositions. |

| Nisbet, et al v. The kirk-session of West-kirk | 1773 | Election contest, Heritor, Session-Clerk, Election, Salmon Fishing, Succession | Sir John Nisbet and other heritors petitioned the Court against the kirk-session of West-kirk (St Cuthberts) for unilaterally electing a schoolmaster-clerk to serve as session-clerk and precentor without heritor consent. The kirk-session answered, admitting that it possessed no right to elect these parish officers without the consent of the heritors. |
