¶1Ludlow recovered a judgment against Ebert and Martin before a justice of the peace, from which Ebert appealed; and on the 29th of July, 1852, the justice’s transcript, with the appeal bond and certain other papers in the cause, was filed in the Circuit Court. The' plaintiff moved to dismiss the appeal on the ground that it was not taken by and in the name of both defendants. The Court sustained the motion, and the appeal was accordingly dismissed.
¶2The Court ruled correctly. In Kain v. Gradon, 6 Blackf. 138, it was held that “if from the judgment of a justice of the peace against several defendants, some of them appeal to the Circuit Court in their own names, without joining *30the others, the appeal should be dismissed on motion”
¶3The judgment is affirmed with costs.
¶4 The R. S. 1852, in relation to appeals from justices’ judgments, provide that when there are two or more plaintiffs or defendants, one or more of such plaintiffs or defendants may appeal, without joining the others in such appeal. 2 R. S. 1852, p. 461, s. 64.
