has abstract	Lord Cranstown v Johnson (1796) 3 Ves 170, 30 ER 952 is a judicial decision of the English courts relating to the conflict of laws and the ability of the court to exercise personal (or, in personam) jurisdiction over the litigants to compel them to deal with land which is located outside of the jurisdiction of the court. Lord Cranstown owed money to Johnson, although there was a disagreement between them as to how much was owed. Although the parties were discussing the matter, whilst the discussions were ongoing Johnson started proceedings on the island of St Kitts to seek an order of the court for the sale of a valuable estate belonging to Lord Cranston. Under the laws in St Kitts it was permissible to commence such an action by substituted service by nailing the writ to the courthouse door. Lord Cranston was not aware of the proceedings, and so the court proceeded to make an order for the sale of the estate, which Johnson purchased (as the only bidder) for a fraction of its true worth. When he discovered what had happened, Lord Cranstown sued Johnson in the English courts, and sought an order that Johnson return his estates to him. Even though the land in question was located outside of the jurisdiction of the court, it nonetheless ordered Johnson to reconvey the estate to Lord Cranstown, holding "this Court cannot act upon the [foreign] land directly, but acts upon the conscience of the person living here."
