Rome Trust Co. v. Cummings

On February 14, 1923, a warrant of attachment was issued against the property of the defendant Cummings, upon the ground that he was a non-resident of the state of New York, and a levy was made upon his interest in certain real property. Three days later an order was granted directing that service of the summons be made by publication, or personally without the *885state. On February twenty-seventh the summons was personally served without the state. Mr. Cummings failed to appear, and on April 5, 1923, judgment for $2,591.15 was entered against him in the Oneida county clerk’s office.
