Lords and Money Lenders. Roxis Covurt case described
The case follows Lord Cocunagg v Kerry with motions resumed. Pemberton outlines the plaintiff as eldest son of the Earl of Dundonald, entangled with Richard Keily a self styled loan agent. Frequent loans at usurious rates, numerous bills exchanged, and an ongoing agent principal relationship lead to a court injunction to protect the plaintiff. The judge notes potential misapplication and insists on continuing the injunction, with a full accounting to determine true debt.
