Vexation
1. No man will ought to be brought into a Judicatory by compulsion
without reasonable ground made for believing that he would
not appear otherwise without compulsion. No suit therefore commenced,
but by leave of the Judge grounded to an application after hearing time.
Vexation
2. No man will ought to be so much as called upon
to appear in a Judicatory as a defendant without
reasonable ground for regarding it as probable that in
the pursuer's claim demand there is more or less of justice.
Expence.
3. Of the expence incident to just pursuit or defence
no part that the laws can relieve a man from without preponderant
inconveniences ought to be left to press on any
any man: by every such pressure every man who shows can not
endure it stands exclude outlawed: excluded for the benefit
of justice: excluded from all relief at the hands of the Judge:
subjected to oppression in every shape by the hand of the Judge.
Delay
4. Exceptions excepted every For the determination
of a suit the regular time is the first judicial meeting composed of mutual attendance part
of each two days: the on the first day the initiatory application,
on the last day the mutual attendance.
In this way will be disposed of by far the greatest
part of the suits the demand for which the demand has place. 1. in
civil private cases, debts for goods sold, work done, money lent, and
common assaults: 2. in publico-private cases, common is theft, or
money obtained on false pretences.
5. To the quantity of time which may elapse between
the initiatory application and the before
justice can be done, there no limits whatever can be assigned
consistently with justice: the time that may necessary may
vary from one additional day to any number of additional days.
What combined limits can there be to the time distance between the time at
which a necessary piece
of evidence is needed,
and that a which
it can be obtained?
