Analysis

No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.

Opinion — Heydeneeldt

Mr. Justice Heydeneeldt delivered the opinion of the Court.

Mr. Ch. J. Murray concurred.

The demurrer was improperly sustained. The bill is filed by a creditor asking relief against fraudulent transfers and concealment of his property by the debtor. This is a substantial ground of equity jurisdiction, and we see no reason for refusing to entertain it.

Judgment reversed, and the cause remanded.
