McCandlish v. Kirkland
McCandlish v. Kirkland
Opinion of the Court
By the court:
J. B. Kirkland, the real defendant in this case, having a judgment against J. F. A. Boyle, took out an execution against him, and caused it to be levied on certain furniture found in a house rented and occupied by Boyle.
James McCandlish, the plaintiff in the present suit, enjoined the execution, claiming to be the owner of the furniture, under a sale from Boyle.
The defendant, in his answer, denies that the plaintiff is the owner of the property seized, and says that the sale to McCandlish was fraudulent and simulated.
The proof that the plaintiff produced of his good faith, and the reality of the sale, did not satisfy the district judge, nor can we say that it is satisfactory to us.
It is therefore ordered and decreed, that the judgment of the district court be affirmed, with costs.
