Syllabus

<p>Execution'—Redelivery—Statutes. Upon levy of execution from justice court, redelivery may be had under the provisions of Rem. Code, § 573; since Id., § 1888, defining the proceedings for taking possession of property levied upon by execution issued out of justice court is not exclusive, § 1889 providing that the claimant to such property may resort to any legal remedy.</p> <p>Injunction—Remedy at Law—Preventing Execution. That there is a remedy at law will not prevent the issuance of an injunction to prevent the seizure of property under an invalid or void writ of execution, where the remedy by injunction is more speedy and efficacious.</p> <p>Assignments for Benefit of Creditors—Possession of Property —Effect. An assignment for the benefit of creditors is not affected by the fact that the trustee employed the insolvent debtor in operating the property.</p> <p>Fraudulent Conveyances— Preference — Hindering Creditors. The transfer to one creditor of all the insolvent’s property is not a delaying or hindering of creditors, since the insolvent debtor may prefer one or more of his creditors.</p>
