Sherrod v. McGruder
Decision Date | 19 April 1923 |
Docket Number | 2 Div. 799. |
Citation | 209 Ala. 260,96 So. 78 |
Parties | SHERROD v. MCGRUDER ET AL. |
Court | Alabama Supreme Court |
Appeal from Circuit Court, Perry County; S. F. Hobbs, Judge.
Action by Tennessee McGruder and others against Etta Sherrod and others. From a judgment for plaintiff, Etta Sherrod alone appeals. Appeal dismissed.
W. L Hogue, of Marion, for appellant.
R. B Evins, of Greensboro, and A. W. Stewart, of Marion, for appellees.
The suit, after revival, was against several defendants and resulted in judgment for plaintiffs. The appeal was taken and error assigned by only one of the defendants in judgment.
The fact that the appeal is taken only by Etta Sherrod is attested by the "notice of appeal," notice thereof "to attorneys for plaintiffs," and in her "appeal bond." Codefendants are not shown to have been brought in by notice or summons issued out of the circuit court or out of this court.

Acts 1911, p. 589), or that they be brought in pursuant to an order of the court to which the appeal is taken. This court may not, as invited so to do, conclude the rights of the other parties without having them before it. The right of the court to proceed to other judgment than that of dismissal of the appeal was the subject of discussion, where codefendants had not joined in the appeal and yet were properly before the court of their own motion, in L. & N R. R. Co. v. Shikle, 206 Ala. 494, 497, 90 So. 900. Such is not the case before us.
Only after compliance with such statutory provision, or when the parties have been brought in by order of the...
