Margot VON OPEL, Appellant, v. Fritz VON OPEL, Appellee.

PER CURIAM.

Appellant sued in the District of Columbia to enforce a judgment obtained against appellee in New York. It is not enforcible here as a money judgment, because appellee was not a resident of New York and was not personally served with process there. Stock certificates that had been vested by the Alien Property Custodian, and were in New York, are now in the District of Columbia. But vested property cannot be reached by attachment or execution. Von Opel v. Uebersee Finanz Korporation, 96 U.S.App.D.C. 230, 225 F.2d 530.

In declining to permit amendment of appellant's complaint, the District Court did not abuse its discretion.

Affirmed.
