Tanquary v. Howard

The judgment was for the appellee and against the appellant Tanquary and F. E. Carringer jointly. To this judgment they excepted and jointly prayed an appeal which was allowed upon condition that they file a prescribed appeal bond. Carringer, the other judgment debtor, did not, by himself or any other person, sign the appeal bond. It was executed by Tanquary, and for himself only. Tanquary did not pray for nor was a separate appeal granted to him. He prosecutes this appeal in his own behalf and in his own name, without using the name of the other judgment debtor.
