• holding that compliance with a judgment, even after issuance of an execution, may bar an appeal because “anything which savors of acquiescence in a judgment cuts off the right of appeal”
• court rejected defendants’ claim that their actions were done involuntarily under threat of being held in contempt of court; acquiescence therefore found and right to appeal foreclosed
• the trial court awarded specific performance to the vendee of certain property. The vendor appealed the judgment and then voluntarily conveyed the property to the vendee. The appeal was thereby found moot
• “In an appeal from a judgment of a district court granting specific performance of a contract for the sale of real property, the acts of the appellants following entry of the judgment savor of acquiescence and the appeal is dismissed. [Emphasis added.]”
