The plaintiff had a docketed judgment against W. W. Powell, who conveyed his tract of land to A. M. Powell and John Powell after said judgment was docketed. The plaintiff institutes this action for an order to sell said land to satisfy said judgment. The defendants demur to the complaint on the ground that it appears therein that the plaintiff’s lien had expired and was lost by the lapse of time. The demurrer was sustained, his Honor bolding that the complaint stated no cause of action against the defendants. The plaintiff excepted, and appealed.
