Lewis v. Ball

The plaintiffs shew enough to entitle them to the rule applied for, in the first instance ; but this may be answered by the sheriff and his sureties. It may be that there has been already levied, by execution against them, the full amount of the penalty. Notice of the application should be given, in these eases, to the sheriff and his sureties. They may be able to reduce the amount claimed ; or shew matter which would defeat the application altogether,

Motion denied-
