Commonwealth v. Ragsdale, 2 Va. 8 (Va. 1807).

Opinion

Per Curiam.

The usual course of the court has been to make a rule upon the person in possession, where (as in this case) he is not a party to the suit; and, unless he shews a paramount right in himself, to order the property to be delivered to the commissioners acting under the decree ; and, if necessary, to enforce such order by an attachment. Let the rule be returnable to the next term.
