Cardinal v. Eau Claire Lumber Co.

Cassoday, J. If the judgment was in fact paid in 1817, as alleged, the plaintiff had a perfect remedy by motion in the circuit court for Eau Claire county.

Secs. 2902-2904, 2906-2908, 2910-2913, R. S. One circuit court in this state„will not restrain the enforcement of a judgment, whether fo,r legal or equitable relief, rendered in another circuit court. Orient Ins. Co. v. Sloan, 70 Wis. 611.
