Lehman Bros. v. Bradley

BRICKELL, C. J. The bill is filed to subject lands descended to the payment of a debt of the intestate. The only evidence of the indebtedness was the transcript of a judgment against the personal representative. There is no privity between the personal representative and the heir, and a judgment against the former is no evidence against the latter in proceedings to subject lands descended. — Darrington v. Borland, 3 Port. 9; Teague v. Corbitt, 57 Ala. 529. The decree is affirmed.
