1882 Me. LEXIS 98

Appleton, Barrows, Danforth, Symonds, Walton, Yirgest

Opinion of the Court

AppletoN, C. J.

The lien acquired by the attachment was lost by the neglect to retain possession of the property attached.

The property attached was easily removeable. The case is not within E. S.,.c. 81, § 24.

If the attachment was valid, it was but the attachment of the interest of only one co-tenant. The sale of the whole property was wrongful.

Judgment for plaintiff.

WaltoN, Barrows, DaNforth, Yirgest and SymoNds, JJ., concurred.
