MANDEVILLE v. LOVE.

[2 Cranch, C. C. 249.]1

Circuit Court, District of Columbia.

Oct Term, 1821.

JUDGMENT—SUPERSEDEAS—SURETIES.

A judgment of the circuit court cannot be superseded without two sureties.

[Cited in Chesapeake & Ohio Canal Co. v. Bancroft, Case No. 2,644.]

Mr. Wallach, for defendant, moved the court to quash an execution which had issued upon a supersedeas of a judgment of this court, acknowledged by the original defendant and one surety only; whereas the act of Maryland of 1791, c. 67, requires two.

Mr. Lear, for plaintiff.

THE COURT (nem. con.) quashed the execution.
