Williford v. . Conner

Supreme Court of North Carolina
Williford v. . Conner, 12 N.C. 379 (N.C. 1828)

Williford v. . Conner

Opinion of the Court

Hah,, Judge.

The charge of the Judge in this case was certainly correct. The statutes against fraudulent conveyances in favor of creditors, can only he carried into effect by due process of law. If the sale of the colt in this case, was fraudulent as to creditors, Ward’s execution should have been levied upon it, in the hands of the Plaintiff. But the Defendant had no right to be a judge in his own cause, and seize upon it on that account. The sale between the parties was good and valid, and the Defendant in taking the property, acted as a wrongdoer.

Per Curiam. — Judgment affirmed.
