A man was in possession of land, and infeft upon a disposition from the heir of line. There was a personal deed of entail of the same lands, the heir of which granted a trust bond, upon which the trustee led an adjudication. The question was, Whether this was a sufficient title to pursue a maills and duties against the person infeft?—And the Lords unanimously found it was, because the process resolved into a competition of rights and a reduction of the defender's infeftment: and it is an established point, that an adjudication upon the trust-bond of any heir is a sufficient title in the reduction, even of an infeftment.
