148 S.E. 28 | N.C. | 1929
This was a motion by defendant that an attachment levied upon her personal property under a warrant issued in this action be vacated and that the warrant be dismissed.
From an order denying her motion, defendant appealed to the Supreme Court.
It is conceded that the affidavit on which the warrant of attachment was issued is insufficient, for that the grounds for plaintiff's assertion therein that defendant was about to dispose of her property and that she was about to leave the State, with intent to defraud her creditors, are not set out in the affidavit. C. S., 799. In First National Bank v. TarboroCotton Factory,
In the instant case, the warrant was issued and the attachment levied on defendant's property on 23 November, 1927. Her motion that the attachment be vacated and dismissed was heard on the following day. At the hearing the defendant offered evidence in support of her motion; plaintiff offered evidence to sustain the warrant of attachment. The judge found from the evidence that there was reasonable ground for the attachment, and thereupon denied the motion. Defendant excepted to the signing of the judgment or order. This exception cannot be sustained.
In Sheldon v. Kivett,
The order and judgment in the instant case is in effect an amendment of the affidavit. The court found from evidence offered by defendant as well as by the plaintiff that there was reasonable ground for the assertions in the affidavit and thereupon refused to vacate the attachment and dismiss the warrant. Clark v. Clark,
The order of the court in this case is sustained by the decision inClark v. Clark, and is
Affirmed.
