Roe v. Swart
5 Cow. 294
Opinion
The statute is, that all judgments thereafter to be rendered, should cease to be a lien or incumbrance on any real estate, as against bona fide purchasers, or subsequent incumbrancers, by mortgage, judgment, or otherwise, from and after ten years from the time of docketing. The words leave no room for doubt or construction; and the motion must be granted. Clearly the plaintiff cannot enlarge the lien by the mere act of issuing execution.
Motion granted.
