1. ““The general rule is that absolute assignment of a judgment passes all the assignor’s assignable rights therein to the assignee, and givesi the latter the right to use every remedy, lien, or security available to the assign- or, as a means of enforcement thereof; but it may be stated, in £ particular application of the general rule, that those rights which thus pass by assignment, along with a judgment, are only such as are vested in the assignor by virtue of that particular judgment, and do not include those arising out of another and different proceeding, although such other proceeding be a contest over a particular method of enforcing the judgment assigned.””
