Swift v. Arents

Swift v. Arents
California Supreme Court · Decided October 15, 1854 · Heydeneeldt, Murray
4 Cal. 390

Swift v. Arents

Opinion of the Court

Mr. Justice Heydeneeldt

delivered the opinion of the Court.

Mr. Ch. J. Murray concurred.

The demurrer was improperly sustained. The bill is filed by a creditor asking relief against fraudulent transfers and concealment of his property by the debtor. This is a substantial ground of equity jurisdiction, and we see no reason for refusing to entertain it.

Judgment reversed, and the cause remanded.
