<p>Judgment — Confession of judgment — Voidable judgment — Exhaustion of power — Striking off judgment.</p> <p>Where a judgment is entered on a judgment note prior to its maturity, such a judgment is an actual one, although voidable, and exhausts the warrant of attorney contained in the note,, and if a second judgment is entered on the note after its maturity, and the defendant without notice of the first judgment and without unreasonable delay takes a rule to strike off both judgments, such a rule is properly made absolute.</p>
