PER CURIAM:

This case was begun by a writ of foreign attachment, 10 Del.C. § 3506, by which the proceeds of certain insurance policies were seized as a basis for establishing jurisdiction in the Superior Court. The Court determined that the policy in issue was exempt from creditor claims by the provisions of 18 Del.C. § 2726, Del. Super., 338 A.2d 575" court="Del. Super. Ct." date_filed="1975-05-12" href="https://app.midpage.ai/document/wilmington-trust-company-v-barry-2384897?utm_source=webapp" opinion_id="2384897">338 A.2d 575 (1975). We have concluded, for the reasons stated in the careful and complete opinion of the Superior Court, that its ruling was a correct interpretation and application of the statute.[*]

Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed.

NOTES

[*] Plaintiff argues in this Court that the statute is unconstitutional but, since that question was not "fairly presented to the court below for decision," Supreme Court Rule 5 (7), we refuse to consider it here.
