Mount v. Mount

11 Paige Ch. 383, 1844 N.Y. LEXIS 230

Opinion

The Chancellor

decided that, under the existing laws' relative to the exemption of property from execution, a person who was not worth more than $250 was not good security for costs. He said that where a bond for costs in the penalty of $250 was required, the sureties, respectively, should be required to justify in double- that amount-; to render it probable- that the amount of the penalty of the bond could be collected of either or both of the sureties upon execution.

Order accordingly.
