    LITCHFIELD COUNTY,
    FEBRUARY TERM, A. D. 1791.
    Welles v. Dexter.
    Action of debt on judgment will not lie unless it appears the plaintiff cannot otherwise have the effect of his judgment.
   Upon a writ of error it was determined; that an action of debt upon judgment is not sustainable, unless it appears by the plaintiff’s declaration that he could not have the effect' of his judgment without it; as where the debtor has absconded and concealed his visible property, and the plaintiff must have recourse to a foreign attachment for security or the like; otherwise the action will be considered _ as unnecessary and vexatious.
