People v. Keith

Colorado Court of Appeals
Apr 19, 2012
Court of Appeals No. 10CA0478 (Colo. App. Apr. 19, 2012)

Summary

In Elliott v. Keith, 32 Mo. App. 579, 585, this court held that the word "immediately" used in an instruction, defining "about to remove" property for the purpose of attachment, meant "instantly, directly, without delay, forthwith, just now," and was erroneous as unduly limiting the words "about to remove" as a ground for attachment so that "a creditor would have to wait until the debtor had taken such steps for the departure, that it would be too late to attach."
