HERMAN KRAM, Doing Business under the Firm Name and Style of KAY TRIMMING COMPANY, Respondent, v. "JOHN" ADLER, First Name Fictitious, Unknown to Plaintiff, Caretaker of the Premises 44 West Twenty-second Street, Manhattan, Appellant.

PER CURIAM.

Plaintiff issued a requisition in replevin which, with the summons and complaint in the appropriate action were served upon defendant by a marshal. The marshal's return shows, and the testimony demonstrates, that the chattels mentioned in the requisition had been leased to a third party.

Under those circumstances defendant could not have been guilty of contempt of court for having "wilfully disobeyed the writ of replevin * * * in that he failed to turn over [to the marshal] * * * the chattels therein described and enumerated."

Order reversed, with ten dollars costs, and motion denied, with ten dollars costs.

All concur; present, BIJUR, LEVY and CHURCHILL, JJ.
