  2. Article 3. Insolvent's Discharge From Debts

§ 88. Invalidity may be proved on motion to vacate order of arrest or

execution. Where a person, who has been discharged as prescribed in this

article, is afterwards arrested by virtue of an order of arrest made, or

an execution issued, in an action founded upon a debt or liability from

which he is so discharged, the adverse party may oppose his application

to be released from the arrest, by proof, by affidavit, of any cause for

avoiding the discharge, for want of jurisdiction, or as specified in the

last section. If such a cause is established, the application must be

denied.
