Illustration
A institutes a suit against Z. Z, knowing that A is likely to obtain a decree
against him, fraudulently suffers a judgment to pass against him for a larger amount
at the suit of B, who has no just claim against him, in order that B, either on his own
account or for the benefit of Z, may share in the proceeds of any sale of Z’s property
which may be made under A’s decree. Z has committed an offence under this
section.
