Though an assignation be not intimated, the assignee creditor may arrest, and his arrestment is preferable to a subsequent translation by that assignee, though his debt be constituted only by a decreet holding that assignee as confessed; but an arrestment being on a dependance, if the citation be null, and so no dependance, the arrestment falls in consequence.
