*376Abstract of the Decision.
1. Execution, § 293 * —when judgment debtor may not be released from custody. The County Court has no authority to enter an order releasing a judgment debtor from the custody of the sheriff under a writ of capias ad satisfaciendum issued upon a judgment in tort where malice was the gist of the action.
2. Execution, § 285*—when affidavit is not required for issuanee of a capias ad satisfaciendum. Under Hurd’s Rev. St. 1913, ch. 77, sec. 62 (J. & A. If 6809), an affidavit is not required for the issuance of a capias ad satisfaciendum upon a judgment in tort.
