(after stating the case). The exception cannot be sustained. The defendants undertook, in disregard of the express order of the Court, forbidding them to make *325any transfer of the property or in any way to interfere with it, to discharge the debts and mortgage mentioned, while the plaintiff was seeking to subject the notes to the payment of the judgment of the plaintiff in the proceedings supplementary to the execution. The defendants could not thus discharge the notes and mortgage — their action in this respect was wholly ineffectual, because the statute, (The Code, §§ 494, 495,) coupled with the order of the Court, had the effect to prevent them from transferring the title to the land and discharging the notes or changing the condition of the same.
It was competent for the Court to order a sale of the land to pay the notes, and to apply the fund arising therefrom without regard to what the defendants had so undertaken to do. The very purpose of the statute is "to disable the judgment debtor as to his property, and thus prevent him from making a sale, transfer or other disposition thereof. It would be to a great extent nugatory, if it had not such, effect. .The remedy by attachment for contempt against the defendant for failure to observe the order of the Court would, at most, only be partial, and might fail to afford the creditor just protection. Indeed, the statute vests the receiver in 'this and like cases with the property and effects of the judgment debtor from the time of the service of the restraining order, and if there be no such order, then from the time of the filing and recording of the order for the appointment of the receiver
The appellant, therefore, did not have any estate or interest in the land, or any interest in the fund arising therefrom, not subject to be applied to the payment of the notes secured by the mortgage; nor, so far as appears from any pleading or other proceeding, was he entitled to have the part of the fund devoted by the judgment to the payment of the balance of the personal property exemption of the feme defendant.
*326It is suggested, in the case stated on appeal, that after the judgment appealed from was entered, and after the appeal was taken, the feme defendant “ transferred ” so much of the judgment as is in her favor to the defendant, but of this mere suggestion we can take no notice, because such assignment is not made to appear by any proper motion or proceeding.
It seems, from the case stated on appeal, that the appellee plaintiff objected and excepted to the judgment in favor of the feme defendant, but he did not appeal, and his exception is not,-therefore, before us and we cannot consider or take notice of it. It has no proper place in the transcript of the record of this appeal.
The appellant, in effect, appealed only from so much of the judgment as was in favor of his co-defendant feme sole, but he failed to give her notice of his appeal, nor did he serve his statement of the case on appeal on her. as, regularly, he should have done.
As to the judgment complained of, she was the adverse party and entitled to notice. As such notice was not given, she might have moved in apt time to -dismiss the appeal as to herself, upon the ground that no notice of it was given. Indeed, she did move to dismiss it after the argument on the merits had begun, but it was then too late. The rule of practice of this Court, (Rule 2, § 6,) prescribes that “ A motion to dismiss an appeal for non-compliance with the requirements of the statute in perfecting an appeal, must be made at or before entering upon the trial of the appeal upon its merits, and such motion will be allowed, unless such compliance be shown in the record, or a waiver thereof appear therein, or such compliance is dispensed with by a writing signed by the appellee or his counsel to that effect.”
The statutory provisions to which this rule applies are modified to some extent, but not so as to affect this case, by the statute, (Acts 1887, ch. 121.)
Affirmed.
