It being objected to an adjudication, that the decree of constitution, upon which it proceeded, was null; in regard that it concluded against the debtor, upon no other passive title, than that of a charge to enter heir; and yet that part of the debts, therein decerned for, were acquired by the pursuer, after raising and executing the general charge; so that, with regard to these debts, the decree was without any foundation; The Lords sustained the objection, so as to strike these debts out of the accumulated sum; but not to annul the adjudication in totum.

Fol. Dic. v. 1. p. 7.
