Court | Missouri Court of Appeals |
Appeal from St. Louis Circuit Court; Daniel G. Taylor, Judge.
Action by the Scientific American Club against Louis Horchitz and another. From a judgment for plaintiff, defendants appeal. Affirmed.
See, also, 128 Mo. App. 575, 106 S. W. 1117.
Frank K. Ryan, of St. Louis, for appellants. Bishop & Cobbs, of St. Louis, for respondent.
Plaintiff commenced its action before a justice of the peace to recover a debt claimed to be due it by the defendant Horchitz. On trial before the justice there was a verdict and judgment for plaintiff. Seven days after the judgment was rendered, defendant appealed to the circuit court, giving an appeal bond with appellant Levin as surety. No notice of the appeal having been served on plaintiff, and after the lapse of several terms of the circuit court, plaintiff filed its motion to affirm the judgment of the justice for failure to give notice of the appeal.

This motion was stricken from the files by the circuit court and the motion to affirm the judgment of the justice sustained, the judgment being rendered in the circuit court in favor of respondent, plaintiff below, and against Horchitz, the defendant in the case, and Levin his surety on his appeal bond. Whereupon defendant Horchitz appealed to this court, where the judgment of the circuit court was affirmed. See Scientific American Club v. Horchitz, 128 Mo. App. 575, 106 S. W. 1117. Execution thereupon issued out of the office of the clerk of the circuit court against Horchitz and Levin, who thereupon filed their motion to quash the execution, alleging the same grounds as set out in the former motion, that is failure of plaintiff to comply with the provisions of section 3039, supra, and upon the further ground that the summary judgment against defendant Levin, surety on the appeal bond, and issue of execution thereon deprived him of his property without due process of law, in violation of the provisions of the...
