Diligence in Scots Law is a process; an execution. The term has several usages in legal proceedings involving creditors and debtors: *''Diligence Against the Heritage'' - A writ of execution by which the creditor proceeds against the real estate of the debtor. *''Diligence Incident'' - a writ ordering witnesses and others having information to provide testimony and answer questions. *''Diligence to Examine Havers'' - A process to obtain information from those who have it (hence, "havers"), and who must bring records, etc. with them to be examined. *''Diligence Against the Person'' - A writ of execution, by which the creditor proceeds against the person of the debtor. *''Second Diligence'' - Second letters issued where the first have been disregarded (similar to a contempt of court citation). *''Summary Diligence'' - Diligence issued in a summary manner, like an execution of a warrant of attorney. *''Diligence Against Witnesses'' - Process to compel the attendance of witnesses.
