N.Y. Soc. Serv. Law § 103 — Seizure of property of persons liable for support is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

§ 103. Seizure of property of persons liable for support. The responsible public welfare official may apply to a court having jurisdiction in actions involving an amount equal to the value of property to be seized for a warrant to seize the real or personal estate of a person who absents himself, leaving any one for whose support he is liable dependent upon public support or liable to become so dependent. If such a warrant be issued, the public welfare official may seize the property and apply the proceeds as directed by the court.
