Opinion

No. 22773.

Decided January 8, 1968.

Action involving plaintiffs in error as sureties on an appeal bond. From adverse judgment, the plaintiffs in error brought error.

Affirmed.

1. APPEAL AND ERRORTrial Court — Jurisdiction — Judgment — Sureties — Appeal Bond — Validity. Reviewing court is of the view that trial court had jurisdiction and acted properly in entering judgment against plaintiffs in error as sureties on an appeal bond; the appeal bond was not a nullity.

Error to the District Court of Adams County, Honorable Clifford J. Gobble, Judge.

Joe Clarence Medina, for plaintiffs in error.

No appearance for defendants in error.


Plaintiffs in error are here seeking reversal of a judgment entered against them in the amount of $928.52. This judgment resulted from the fact they they became sureties on an appeal bond in an action originally filed in the county court in which F. A. Heckendorf, Inc., recovered a judgment against Arthur R. White.

The Pantels argue that the appeal bond which was executed by them was a nullity, and, further, that when the district court conducted a trial de novo and entered a judgment against White, and ultimately against them, it was without jurisdiction. There is not merit to the argument of plaintiffs in error.


The judgment is affirmed.

MR. JUSTICE PRINGLE not participating.
