CONT

arrestment jurisdictionis fundandae causa, i.e. the seizure of movables within the jurisdiction to find jurisdiction against their owner, being a foreigner; this procedure, which is not, however, strictly a "diligence," as it does not bind the goods, is analogous to the French saisie-arret, and to the obsolete practice in the mayor's court of London known as "foreign attachment" (see Glyn and Jackson, Mayor's Court Practice, 2nd ed., vii. 260)
