Citations

  • 23 Cal. 233

Syllabus

<p>A conveyance of property made and received with intent to defraud creditors is void, though there may have been a full and valuable consideration paid therefor. The fraud taints and vitiates it, and it will not be allowed to stand even as security for advances actually made.</p> <p>Where the fraudulent vendee has held the property, or converted the same to his own use, the Court will compel him to account for the value thereof, and direct the proceeds to be paid over to the creditors of the vendor.</p>
