Robert Lord Blantyre, and George Season of Barnes Esq; v Mr John Currie, Minister of Haddington: HL 1 Jun 1714

Teird Court, Minister’s Stipend. – A Parish bring disjoined the stipend formerly modified upon the whole, a allocates upon the original remaining parish, notwithstanding the use of payment had remained for so years, and the same after the disjunction as before.
It was not necessary to call the heritors of the new parish, as parties.
It was no sufficient defence, that the stipend still remaining was above the minimum setteled by the parliament.
A stipend is objected to as above the maximum of 1633, c. 19. but this stipend is allocated and decreed to be paid.
