Opinion

¡Stephens, J.

1. On tlie trial of an issue formed by a distress warrant and tlie counter-affidavit of the tenant, where the tenant had replevied the property and had given bond for the eA'entual condemnation money as provided by the Civil Code (1910), § 5391, where-it appeared that, more than four months after the levy of the distress warrant, the tenant was adjudicated a bankrupt, the plaintiff could nevertheless, upon proof of the indebtedness, proceed to take a judgment against the bankrupt, as the basis of a judgment against the surety on the' bond, on condition that a stay of execution be granted as against the bankrupt.
