Syllabus

<p>Syllabus.</p> <p>1. Defendant Ras no right to enjoin the execution of a judgment in a petitory action in favor of the plaintiff which is absolute and unconditional in its-terms as to ownership and right of possession, and. force plaintiff to await a decision upon unliquidated claims touching matters upon which the defendant had simply reserved 'his rights.</p> <p>2. Where the District Court has set aside an injunction which it had granted-upon the ground that it was an injunction against the execution of a judgment of the Supreme Court, absolute and unconditional, in its ternas, it should refuse an appeal to the party cast and force him to apply to the-Supreme Court for relief. When, however, it has, in fact, granted a suspensive appeal, it should not (so long as the order of appeals stand) oust the appellant from his possession secured by his appeal, by placing the property in the hands of a private individual, styled a sequestrator, and enjoining the</p> <p>^ appellant from acts of possession.; particularly, is this the case, wher'd the sheriff had in his hands a writ of possession from the inception of the proceedings.</p>
