Federal Land Bank v. Stewart
Idaho Supreme Court · Decided December 27, 1928 · Taylor, Lee, Givens, Hartson, Budge
272 P. 1029; 47 Idaho 161; 1928 Ida. LEXIS 59

Federal Land Bank v. Stewart

Opinion of the Court

TAYLOR, J.

This appeal is from a judgment on demurrer. The ruling was based upon the ground that, as against a real estate mortgage, the lien of personal property taxes levied against property of a mortgagor in years subse *162 quent to the execution of the mortgage, and entered upon the real property roll of the county against the land mortgaged, has priority over the mortgage.

This ease does not differ in principle from that of Scottish American Mortgage Co. v. Minidoka County, ante, p. 33, 272 Pac. 498. Upon the authority of that decision, the judgment is reversed, and the cause remanded for further proceedings in accordance therewith. Costs to appellant.

Wm. E. Lee, C. J., Givens, J., and Hartson, D. J., concur. Budge, J., dissents.
