Peasley, sir."

When the consul looked again, the American barkentine Retriever had turned her tail on Cape Town and was scampering down Table Bay with a bone in her teeth; heeling gently to the freshening breeze, she was rolling home in command of the boy who had joined her five months before as an able seaman.
Now four days wasted means something to a big barkentine like the Retriever; and in the absence of any excuse for the delay Cappy Ricks promptly came to the conclusion that Matt Peasley was ashore in Seattle, disporting himself after the time-honored custom of deep-sea sailors home from a long cruise.

 Professional Collection Consultants v. Griffis (California 04/09/2004) Civil Conspiracy
At least by inference, the scheme was to culminate in a sham foreclosure.
Indeed, it is alleged that foreclosure was commenced when a notice of default was recorded, but was "halted." A conspiracy to commit an uncompleted civil wrong is not actionable.
Thus, even if we were to find, as appellant wishes, that a foreclosure sale can constitute a fraudulent conveyance, the cause of action with regard to the Barkentine Road property is premature, since there has been no foreclosure sale.
