Text: The principal asset of Empire was the Libbie Shearn Moody Trust. In Moody v. Bookout, Middle District of Alabama, Case No. 74-377-N, Moody's prayer for relief asked that the receiver and Protective Life Insurance Company be restrained from in any way disposing of any of Empire's assets until a final decision on appeal in the Supreme Court of Alabama; and that these defendants be enjoined from the execution and carrying out the order of Judge Barber dated June 14, 1974. In Moody v. Moody National Bank and Empire Life Insurance Company in State District Court, Galveston, Texas, Case No. 112,034, Moody's prayer for relief asked that the court reform the terms of the agreement whereby Empire acquired Moody's interest in the Libbie Shearn Moody Trust to conform with the intent of the parties and to expressly provide that neither Empire nor any one acting for it may assign such interest in the Libbie Shearn Moody Trust;   . It is evident that the extraordinary hearings in this court, S.C. 1125, January 22, 1975; S.C. 1221, April 23, 1975; S.C. 1200, March 26, 1975 and November 11, 1975, were either directly or indirectly attempts by Moody to nullify the action of the trial court on June 14, 1974, or to get the possession of the Libbie Shearn Moody Trust out of the receivership and back into Moody's possession. This court has consistently refused to grant Moody the relief sought and, insofar as we are informed, no other jurisdiction, either state or federal court to which he has applied, has granted him any such relief.
