The appellants claim, that, although their judgment was junior, and the levy of their execution subsequent to the appellees’ judgment and levy, they are nevertheless entitled to priority, because of the equitable rule which applies partnership property to the payment of partnership debts, and in preference to the- separate debts of the members of the firm. Conceding the rule to the full extent as claimed by appellants, there are still two sufficient reasons for affirming the judgment of the District Court.
As to whether Martin & Bro. were or not entitled to the whole of the garnished property, instead of only two-thirds of it, as adjudged by the District Court, is not now before us, since they have not appealed.
Affirmed.
