Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Treatise on Fraudulent Conveyances and Creditors Remedies, Vol. 1 of 2: At Law and in Equity, Including a Consideration of the Provisions of the Bankruptcy Law Applicable to Fraudulent Transfer and the Remedies Therefor, and the Procedure of Trustees in Bankruptcy in Actions Either in State or Federal Courts for the Recovery
The subject of fraudulent conveyances has been from the earliest times one of great interest to the public and to the legal profession. Notwithstanding the enlightened efforts of modern jurisprudence to remedy the evils growing out of the fraudulent acts of embarrassed, failing, or dishonest debtors and to devise means for the suppression of such practices, the reported cases involving fraudulent alienations and covinous schemes devised by debtors to defeat the just claims of their creditors are sufficient to demonstrate that this peculiar vice of society is in our day increasing rather than diminishing. The subject is, therefore, one of present and of great and far-reaching importance.
