1Opinion of the Court

GORDON, Chief Judge.

This case presents the question of whether the provisions of Section 1-440.1 et seq. of the North Carolina General Statutes, insofar as they permit the prejudgment attachment of real estate without prior notice and hearing, violate the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. Plaintiff has brought this action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 seeking damages and injunctive relief. Jurisdiction is properly invoked under 28 U.S.C. § 1343(3) and § 1331(a). A three-judge court was convened pursuant to 28 U.S. C. § 2281.
