New York Surrogate's Court, 1881

Joel v. Ritterman

Joel v. Ritterman
New York Surrogate's Court · Decided March 15, 1881
5 Redf. 136

Counsel

G. P. Avery, for petitioner.

Joel v. Ritterman

Opinion of the Court

The Surrogate.

The manner in which the motion was argued indicated that the attachment sought was under section 2555 of the Code, as for a contempt, which has no application to the proceedings, the decree having-been entered before September 1, 1880 (§ 3347, subd. 11). But the moving papers seem to justify the issuing of an attachment under section 10, subd. 4, of 3 R. S., 327 (6 ed.), which must be in form similar to that used by the court of chancery in analogous cases.

Ordered accordingly.
