Rau v. Robertson

Appeal dismissed. A. H. R., as assignee of a mortgage executed by J. R. to a Building Association, and dated the 9th of November, 1871, obtained a decree under Art. 4, secs. 782 to 792, of the Oode of Public Local Laws, for the sale of the mortgaged premises. By deed dated the 10th of December, 1877, for the consideration of §2150, J. R. sold and conveyed, subject to his mortgage to the Building Association, the mortgaged premises to W. S. On payment of a certain sum of money into Court by W. S., the sale of the mortgaged premises under the decree, was suspended, and the cause was referred to the auditor, who stated an account, which was excepted to by J. R. and W. S-The Court overruled the exceptions, and finally ratified the account. From the order of ratification J. R. appealed. On motion of A. H. R., the appeal was dismissed on the ground that J. R., the appellant, had parted with all his interest in the mortgaged premises, by his deed to W. S., and was in no wise interested in the case.

Appeal from the Circuit Court of Baltimore City. On the 9th of November, 1811, John Bau, the appellant, executed a mortgage to The Harrison Building Association No. 1, of Baltimore City, of which he was a member. By deed dated the 10th of December, 1811, for the consideration of $2150, Bau conveyed to William Schluderberg, subject to the aforegoing mortgage to the Building Association, the mortgaged premises. On the 21st of August, 1880, The Harrison Building Association assigned the foregoing mortgage to Alexander H. Bobertson, the appellee. On the 21st of August, 1880, under Art. 4, secs. 182 to 192 of the Code of Public Local Laws, Bobertson obtained a decree for the sale of the mortgaged premises. On the 21th of October, 1880, on the petition of Schluderberg, and payment by him into Court of a certain sum, the sale was suspended, and the papers in the cause were referred to the auditor, to state an account of the claim under the mortgage. An account was thereupon stated, to which Bau and Schluderberg excepted. These exceptions were overruled by the Court, (Dobbin, J.,) and the account was finally ratified, and the case again referred to the auditor to state a further final account. On the 9th of June, 1881, the auditor filed a further account; to this account Bau and Schluderberg excepted. On the 1th of October, 1881, the Court passed an order finally ratifying the account of the auditor; and from this order the present appeal has been taken.
