Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>Receivers—Eligibility—Acquiescence in Appointment—Waiver. In a suit to dissolve a partnership and to close up the partnership business an accounting was had, after which the court, without objection, appointed the defendant partner as receiver to dispose of the partnership assets. After the receiver had acted for more than a year without objection, and the estate was mainly settled, the plaintiff raised the question that the defendant was an interested party and therefore disqualified to act as receiver. Held, that the long acquiescence of the plaintiff in the appointment is tantamount to consent, and that he could-not afterward question the legality of the appointment.</p>
