Manuscripta juridica

Decisiones curiae supremae Scotiae - Practicks 1624-1639 (alphabetical, 'Acts of court' - 'Wife', 'Unlawis') (1626-1638).

Written by only one hand, on one type of paper. Cases are usually dated in the range 1627-1636, yet I also observed some dates outside this range: 1624 (fol. 104v), 1637 (fol. 126v).
