Note 728 — AMENDMENT 14 (continued 3)
Reading edition
Pennoyer v. Neff, 95 U.S. 714 (1878); citing Boswell v. Otis, 9 How. 336 (1850); Cooper v. Reynolds, 10 Wall. 308 (1870). Such remedy, by way of example, is also available to a wife who is enabled thereby to impound local bank deposits of her absent husband for purposes of collecting unpaid instalments by him. Moreover, because of the antiquity of the procedure authorized, a statute permitting the impounding of property of an absconding father for the maintenance of his children is not in conflict with due process because it fails to provide for notice, actual or constructive, to the absconder.—Pennington v. Fourth Nat. Bank, 243 U.S. 269, 271 (1917); Corn Exch. Bank v. Coler, 280 U.S. 218, 222 (1930). Likewise, proceedings to attach wages in execution of a judgment for debt may be instituted without any notice or service on the judgment debtor. The latter, having had his day in court when the judgment was rendered, is not entitled to be apprized of what action the judgment creditor may elect to take to enforce collection.—Endicott Co. v. Encyclopedia Press, 266 U.S. 285, 288 (1924).
