Whited v. Gooch

Mayo, J. Where a sheriff, to whom a writ of fi. fa. has been directed, takes a twelve months’ bond from the judgment debtor, without scrupulously taking all the previous steps prescribed by that part of the Code of Practice which treats of the execution of judgments, such bond is not a legal twelve months’ bond. 30 An. 1269. 2. No execution can issue on such bond against the surety or principal.
