Mabry v. Birge
Mabry v. Birge
Opinion of the Court
There is no assignment of errors in this case, and this of itself is a good ground for its dismissal.
But we are also of the opinion that the order appealed from is not a final judgment, but is interlocutory in its character and will not support an appeal. In the course of litigation commenced by Mrs. Ward to enjoin Harrison and Jones from selling, under deeds of trust from her husband, property which she claimed to he her homestead, and also, in part her separate property, the court appointed a receiver to collect incoming rents. How, her husband, who was made a party defendant, dying during the suit, Mabry, his administrator, becomes a party defendant, and having collected some rents which, under the order of court the receiver was entitled to, the court, after motion and hearing, entered up an order directing him to pay over the amount collected to the receiver and restraining him from making
Enough has been said to show that the order appealed from was interlocutory, and whilst the consideration of this appeal is beyond our jurisdiction no injustice will result from our ruling.
For the reason stated this cause is dismissed.
Dismissed.
