Syllabus

<p>Ownership of fund raised by condemnation proceedings — Title—Action— Right of creditor to intervene.</p> <p>Where an attorney at law employed in condemnation proceedings refuses to pay the proceeds of the land to the apparent owner in whose name it has been condemned, and upon suit brought pays the money into court, a judgment creditor of a person who is alleged to be the real owner will not be permitted to intervene in the proceeding, as the title to the real estate cannot be settled in such a way.</p>
