Syllabus

<p>APPEAL-SUPERSEDEAS BOND-STAYING COSTS.</p> <p>Where the judgment was for costs, and also for other relief, a supersedeas bond which is in double the amount of the costs and $200 additional is sufficient to operate as a supersedeas upon the judgment for costs and as an appeal bond, and therefore give the supreme court jurisdiction, although not sufficient to operate as a supersedeas on other parts of the judgment.</p> <p>TRANSFER OF STOCK-ACTION AGAINST CORPORATION-SUFFICIENCY OF COMPLAINT.</p> <p>An action by an assignee of shares of stock, which had been subscribed for by his assignor, to compel the corporation to issue them to plaintiff does not state a cause of action when it fails to allege a transfer of the stock upon the books of the company or facts showing the duty of the company to enter the transfer, since it is provided in Bal. Code, § 4261, that such transfers shall not be valid, except between the parties thereto, until the same shall have been entered upon the books of the company.</p>
