Heywood v. Hildreth

Heywood v. Hildreth
Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court · Decided October 15, 1812
9 Mass. 393

Counsel

Ward and Hoar,, Dana for the defendant.

Heywood v. Hildreth

Opinion of the Court

Curia.

The whole proceedings, after the seizure on execution, have relation to the day of the seizure. It may often be impossible to complete the extent within thirty days from the rendition of judgment. But the creditor does not lose his lien created by the attachment and seizure, unless more than three months elapse before the recording and return of the execution, &c. (a)

Plaintiff nonsuit.

[Vide Vail vs. Lewis, 4 Johns. Rep. 450. — Devoe vs. Elliot, 2 C. R. 143. — Ed.]
