1794

The pursuer Launie, by John Dickson, petitioned the Court to alter an interlocutor and to decern for the balance of the account, opposing Palmer's claim to charge as principal furnisher and to impose interest and commission. Palmer responded, arguing that the practice of principal furnishers receiving a percentage from tradesmen was not an imposition on the public or employer. The dispute centered on the legitimacy of these charges in the accounting between the parties.AI-generated
