Syllabus

<p>Attachment — Lien. The lien of an attachment of real estate is merged in that of the judgment when the latter is entered.</p> <p>Homestead — Abandonment. Where debtors removed from their real estate upon which they had lived, and went to another state, secretly selling their personal property or removing the same, with intent to establish their residence in such other state and to defraud their creditors, they cannot, after attachment, return to the premises and claim a homestead exemption thereon by living on the premises for a month, no effort to set aside the attachment being made prior to sale on execution, and the return to the premises not being made in good faith; Bal. Code, § 5254, providing that the exemption shall not apply to such persons.</p>
