Power to order contributories in Scotland to pay calls.
|
121. Where an order, interlocutor, or decree has been made in Scotland for winding up a company by the Court, it shall be competent to the Court in Scotland during session, and to the Lord Ordinary on the Bills during vacation, on production by the liquidators of a list certified by them of the names of the contributories liable in payment of any calls which they may wish to enforce, and of the amount due by each contributory respectively, and of the date when the same became due, to pronounce forthwith a decree against such contributories for payment of the sums so certified to be due by each of them respectively, with interest from the said date till payment, at the rate of five pounds per centum per annum, in the same way and to the same effect as if they had severally consented to registration for execution, on a charge of six days, of a legal obligation to pay such calls and interest; and such decree may be extracted immediately, and no suspension thereof shall be competent, except on caution or consignation, unless with special leave of the Court or Lord Ordinary.
