Bell Federal Savings & Loan Ass'n v. Horton

FACTS:

Plaintiff-Appellee sought to foreclose a mortgage lien on certain real property owned by the defendants-appellants, Hubert F. Horton and Tangee S. Horton. The suit proceeded to a decree obtained by default since no pleading was filed by the defendants until after the decree for and sale of the foreclosed premises. The suit proceeded normally to a sheriff’s sale at which plaintiff was the purchaser and to a deficiency judgment of *102.62 against the defendants. There is some question concerning the latter item, but the same does appear in the record as a valid judgment against the defendants.
