• 31 Fla. 45

Syllabus

<p>Where a judgment at law has been assigned absolutely and unconditionally, by the plaintiff therein, the assignee, owning the same, is an indispensable party to a suit in equity to enforce the judgment against alleged assets of the judgment debtor, and such assignee cannot enforce it in the name of the assignor as suing for the use of the assignee. The assignor is a mere nominal and unnecsssary party, yet not an improper one.</p>
