Templeman v. Evans
Templeman v. Evans
Opinion of the Court
This appeal is from an order of the lower court discharging an attachment upon real estate. Respondent moves to strike the statement of facts and dismiss the appeal, for the reason that the evidence consists of affidavits which were not incorporated in any statement of facts or hill of exceptions. A hill of exceptions, however, was filed and served upon respondent’s attorney, who thereupon filed certain amendments thereto. Thereafter, upon
On the merits of the case the question is one entirely of fact. It is sufficient to say that the affidavits are somewhat conflicting, but, upon a careful reading thereof, we think the appellant has failed to show, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the defendant was attempting to dispose of his property in order to defraud his creditors, as alleged in the application for the writ.
The judgment appealed from is therefore affirmed.
Fullerton, C. J., and Hadley, Dunbar, and Anders, JJ., concur.
