Debtors Imprisoned.
Chap. 8.—The relief granted by Chap. 137 of Rev. Stat. 3rd series, is extended to debtors imprisoned under process of the County Courts. When a debtor has not applied for relief under the Act, and has not been relieved by operation of the Insolvency Act, the creditor alleging against him fraud, under section 10, may bring him before the Court, and upon proof of the fact, procure his remand for a year. Previous proceedings for relief of debtors in the County Courts are declared to be valid.
