Haynes, J.

Appeal from an order dismissing proceedings supplementary to execution.

Lewis obtained judgment in the superior court of San Diego county against E. W. Morse and N. H. Conklin for a large sum of money, upon which execution was issued and returned nulla bona. He afterward filed in said *526 court an. affidavit, entitled in said cause, alleging the foregoing facts, and further alleging, on information and belief, that defendant Conklin, for the purpose of avoiding payment of said judgment, conveyed a large amount of property owned by him to Myra I. Conklin, his wife, and to Ralph L. Conklin, his son, who hold said property in their own names, and are thereby aiding and assisting him to shield it from sale to satisfy plaintiff’s said judgment. Like allegations were made of conveyances by defendant Morse to his wife, Mary C. Morse, and that she had conveyed part thereof to one Daniel Schuyler; and upon this affidavit he asked that an order be issued requiring the said judgment debtors and Mary 0. Morse, Myra I. Conklin, Ralph L. Conklin, and Daniel Schuyler “to appear and be examined as to the property of said Morse and Conklin, and for such other relief as is provided by law.”
