KINGDON, C.J., NIGERIA, PETRIDES, C.J., GOLD COAST, AND GRAHAM PAUL, J.
The £7 7s. Od. in question in this appeal is money in custodia legis as the proceeds of execution of a writ of Fi Fa issued on behalf of the respondent. It is therefore the money of the respondent. Any creditor of the respondent desiring to attach this money in the hands of t he Court can do so only by bringing a. suit against the respondent and therein taking the proper steps to do execution against money of the respondent in custodia lenis. It cannot be done by a creditor bringing a motion in the original suit to which he was not a party. It follows that the motion in which the Court below made the order which is the subject of this appeal was incompetent and should have been dismissed on that ground. The motion was dismissed by the Court below and the appeal against the order of dismissal must be-and is- dismissed by this Court without this Court expressing any view whatever as to the correctness or otherwise of the grounds given by the Court below for dismissing the motion.
The respondent is awarded costs assessed at half a guinea.
