Supreme Court of Connecticut

Decided June 15, 1827

Supreme Court of Connecticut · decided 1827-06-15

Boardman obtained a judgment, in the county court, against Beckley, and having taken out execution, caused it to be levied on his personal property. Beckley then sued out a writ of error on such judgment, and had it served on the creditor and the officer holding the execution. After this, the officer collected the execution. The writ of error was duly returned to the superior court; and the judgment of the county court was reversed.

By the Court:

¶1No rule will be made upon the officer in this case. But if he had notice not to pay the money over to Boardman, and has, notwithstanding such notice, made payment, the plaintiff in error may sustain indebitalus assumpsit against him for the money. If he paid it over without notice, the plaintiff in error is without redress as against him.

¶2Motion denied.
