Yeatman v. Estill
Yeatman v. Estill
Opinion of the Court
The judgment of the court was pronounced by
This is a suit brought by attachment against the defendant Estill, airabsentee, in which the plaintiff had judgment. An intervention was filed by Archibald Woods, in which the debt attached was claimed under an assignment alleged to have been made ou the 14th of April, 1841. Judgment was also rendered against the intervening party, and he alone has appealed.
We think the'assignment is not proved according to the terms of artille 2G13 of the Code. Under the evidence we do not feel ourselves called upon to review the decision of the Supreme Court made in reference to this article, and article 3522, § 23, in the case of Flint el al. v. Franklin el al. 9 Rob. 209. The intervention was properly dismissed.
It is no longer competent for the intervening party to object to the mode in which the writ of attachment has been executed. The defendant has appeared on the appeal, and asked that the judgment against him be reversed.
We think that the acknowledgment of the defendant has relieved the notes from the prescription of five years, and the only difficulty in our minds relates to the service oí the writ of attachment. The evidence adduced satisfies us
