A. No assignment shall be declared fraudulent or void for lack of an inventory or list as required under the provisions of this article, but if such list and inventory are not annexed and verified as provided in section 44-1033, it is prima facie evidence that the assignor has secreted and concealed some portion of his property from his assignee, unless, upon the demand of the assignee or a creditor, the verified inventory and list are furnished to the assignee.
