Facts: Jian He, the plaintiff, sought to declare a property transfer by defendants Hai Huang and Ying Gao to their son Tian Long Huang as fraudulent, aimed at evading the collection of a judgment debt awarded to He for injuries from an assault by Hai Huang.
Issue: The core issue was whether the transfer of the family home was made to defraud He, a judgment creditor, from collecting a lawful remedy.
Court’s Ruling: The court found the transfer to be a fraudulent conveyance under the Fraudulent Conveyance Act, noting the timing of the transfer during ongoing litigation and the lack of valuable consideration exchanged.
Costs/Damages Awarded: The plaintiff was entitled to register his judgment against the property title and execute it as if the transfer had not occurred. The court also awarded special costs to the plaintiff for the proceeding.
