Plaintiff brought suit in Florida against this defendant as maker and against one Manley as indorser of a certain promissory note therein sued upon; and therein had judgment against both said defendants in their aforesaid capacities. There was no appeal.

I.

Thereafter plaintiff' brought suit against this defendant in this state to have said judgment made executory here, and therein had judgment accordingly. Again there was' no appeal.

II.

Thereupon plaintiff took out an execution; and this defendant then enjoined said execution on the ground that said judgment had been fully paid by said Manley, and that said execution was an attempt on the part of plaintiff to collect said a'mount in the interest of said Manley, and that the amount, if collected, would be credited (and paid) to said Manley.

AVhereupon plaintiff admitted (and after-wards proved) that these allegations were true.

III.

It is universally recognized law, that:

“There is always at least an implied contract between the parties which obliges a principal to. reimburse his surety when the latter has paid the debt.” 32 Cyc. 250.

The statutory law of Florida so provides. Laws 1855, c. 765, §§ 1 and 2; Laws 1913, c. 6486, §§ 1, 2 and 3. And so also does the law of this state. R. C. C. art. 3052.

IV.

And the settled jurisprudence of this state is that an action may be maintained by, and in the name of, the nominal creditor for the use and benefit of the real creditor, reserving to the debtor his right to set off such *49 equities, if any, as Re may Rave against tRe real creditor.
