The defendants are indemnitors of judgment creditors of Frank Maurer, and the property claimed herein was levied upon by the sheriff, by virtue of an execution against one Frank Maurer. The sheriff was sued originally, and the defendants, as indemnitors, were substituted in his place.
The jury found that the title was not in the judgment debtor, and under the evidence, John Maurer, the brother of the judgment debtor, got but a qualified or conditional title, which was by force of the arrangement defeated when the sheriff seized the property. John Maurer did not intervene as a claimant, and did not ask to be made a party defendant, nor did the present defendants seek to join him as a party. He does not complain of the judgment, and as the jury found that Frank Maurer had no title, the defendants, as his judgment creditors, acquired no right to the property, and cannot seriously complain that the jury so found. Ho error was committed to their prejudice.
It follows that the judgment appealed from must be affirmed, with costs.
