Supreme Court of Louisiana, 1810

Baker v. Hunt

Baker v. Hunt
Supreme Court of Louisiana · Decided July 1, 1810
1 Mart. 194

Baker v. Hunt

Opinion of the Court

By the Court.

The Judge who orders the attachment must be satisfied of the justice of the plaintiff’s demand. The oath of a person who does not appear to have any knowledge of it, except what he receives from the principal who does not swear, can go but little way to satisfy him. If the process issued improperly, the property might be rightfully obtained by giving bond, without thereby waving any legal objection.

Attachment dissolved.
