Syllabus

<p>ASSIGNMENT FOR BENEFIT OF CREDITORS — COMMUNITY BEAUTY-ASSIGNMENT BY HUSBAND ALONE.</p> <p>An assignment by a husband of all his property for the benefit of creditors, under Laws 1889-90, p. 88, operates as a transfer of community property, real and personal, to the assignee in trust for the payment of the community debts. (Scott, J., dissents.)</p> <p>An assignment of community real estate for the benefit of creditors by a husband alone is not such a conveyance or incumbrance of the property as will violate the statute (Gen. Stat., §1400), invalidating the conveyance or incumbrance of community real estate unless husband and wife join in the making thereof. ( Scott, J., dissents.)</p>
