2 N.C. 555

Spiller v. Spiller

Superior Court of North Carolina

Decided April 15, 1797

Superior Court of North Carolina · decided 1797-04-15

This was a hill filed by Mrs. Spiller, for alimony; and her counsel now moved, that so much of his property might be taken, as would probably equal the decree of the court, saying Mr. Spiller was wasting his property.

Decided 1797-04-15

Per curiam

¶1We have ordered sequestrations of this kind, when we have found the Defendant withdrawing his property, or being about to move it and himself to avoid an execution of the decree j but not otherwise. It would be a great stretch of power in this court, to order a sequestration, or a bond for the absolute performance of the decree, whenever a bill is filed against a man by one who claims to be his wife.

¶2Note. — Vide Anonymous, ante 347.
