WILMINGTON TRUST COMPANY, a Delaware Corporation, Plaintiff below, Appellant, v. Virginia J. BARRY et al., Defendants below, Appellees.

PER CURIAM:

This case was begun by a writ of foreign attachment, 10 Del. C. § 3506, by which the proceeds of certain insurance policies were seized as a basis for establishing jurisdiction in the Superior Court. The Court determined that the policy in issue was exempt from creditor claims by the provisions of 18 Del. C. § 2726, Del.Super., 338 A.2d 575 (1975). We have concluded, for the reasons stated in the careful and complete opinion of the Superior Court, that its ruling was a correct interpretation and application of the statute.

Plaintiff argues in this Court that the statute is unconstitutional but, since that question was not "fairly presented to the court below for decision," Supreme Court Rule 5 (7), we refuse to consider it here. Wilmington Memorial Co. v. Silverbrook Cemetery Co., Del.Supr., 297 A.2d 378 (1972); Darling Apartment Co. v. Springer, Del.Supr., 25 Del. 420, 22 A.2d 397 (1941).

Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed.
