1-31-123. Order directing transfer of books and papers; enforcement by fine or imprisonment.

In all actions under W.S. 1-31-101 through 1-31-130, when the judgment is against the defendant, the court may make an order directing the defendant promptly to deliver the books, papers, property, money, deeds, notes, bills and obligations to the persons entitled thereto or the trustees appointed to receive them. If complaint is made upon affidavit to the district court of a neglect or refusal to comply with the order, the court shall direct an attachment returnable immediately to issue for the defendant, who may be required to answer under oath touching the premises. If it appears that the defendant neglects or refuses, the court shall render judgment of fine or imprisonment, or both, as the court making the order might have rendered.
