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 — Niles
By the Court, Niles, J.:
By the act of signing an attachment bond, the surety does not become a participant in the seizure or detention of the attached property by the Sheriff, or liable as a trespasser for such acts. His liability arises under his contract merely, and is limited by its terms and conditions.
Judgment affirmed.
Mr. Justice Rhodes did not express an opinion.
