61 So. 106 | Ala. | 1913
We are disposed to agree with the chancellor to the effect that the deeds from the appellant to his sons Avere inoperative, as against this complainant, but do not agree that all of the property conveyed Avas liable to the complainant’s demand. The
It is suggested by the appellant that the complainant is not the owner of the Searcy judgment, or, rather, that he did not prove the execution of his assignment of same; and that he objected to same as evidence. The court convened on May the 6th, and the decree recites tii at the cause was submitted in term time for a decree in vacation. The chancery court term is one week, so the case must have been submitted before the 14th of May, yet the respondent’s objections were not filed until the 14th of May, and after the submission of the cause, and this conclusion is borne out by the fact that the note of submission does not affirmatively show a submission on the objections, and from the further fact that they are not noticed in the decree.
The chancery court properly subjected all property, other than the homestead, to the complainant’s demand, but erred in disallowing the appellant’s homestead exemption claim, and in subjecting all the property to the satisfaction of the said judgment. The decree of the chancery court is corrected so as to exclude the land set out in the exemption claim, and is in other respects affirmed, and the cost of this appeal is taxed against the appellee.
Corrected and affirmed.
