A person had obtained a sequestration under 12th Geo. III. c. 72. of the effects belonging to himself and his deceased father.
In a competition with an executor creditor, it was the opinion of the Court, that sequestration, in pursuance of the bankrupt statutes, was an inept diligence for attaching the effects of a defunct.
