CourtMissouri Supreme Court

Appeal from circuit court, Jackson county; TURNER A. GILL, Judge.

Action by Thomas Corrigan against Margaret J. Morris and others, to enforce the lien of tax-bills. Defendants appeal from an order refusing to quash an execution issued on a judgment for plaintiff.

Scarritt & Scarritt, for appellants. Crysler & Kenyon, for respondent.

BRACE, J.

The respondent brought suit against the appellants, to which the county of Jackson was made a party defendant, to enforce the lien of two special tax-bills issued by the city of Kansas City on a certain lot in said city, for the improvement of a certain street therein. Judgment was obtained against all the defendants in that suit, a transcript thereof filed in the office of the clerk of the circuit court of Jackson county, and an execution issued thereon. The appellants then filed a motion in the circuit court to quash the execution. This motion was overruled by the circuit court, and they appeal. To this motion, and the subsequent proceedings thereon, the county of Jackson was not a party, and is not a party to this appeal. The title to real estate is not involved in the questions to be determined thereon, (State v. Court of Appeals, 67 Mo. 200; Dunn v. Miller, 96 Mo. ___, 9 S. W. Rep. 640,) and the amount in dispute is below the jurisdiction of this court. The case is properly within the appellate jurisdiction of the Kansas City court of appeals, to which it is ordered that it be transferred. All concur.
