Syllabus

<p>Bankruptcy — Receiver—Trustee—Joint action — Amendment of record on appeal.</p> <p>1. Where a federal receiver and trustee in bankruptcy is sued in one action, in both capacities, in a state court, without leave of the court which appointed him, judgment for defendant will be entered on demurrer.</p> <p>2. On an appeal from such judgment an amendment of the record will not be allowed by the appellate court, so as to permit the suit to stand against the trustee only. The court below is not to be convicted of error because of an amendment to the record made after it reaches the upper court.</p>
