Lundin, ex pressing ttie opinion of the joiiu ciurt, when ha ruled that after a j mortgage has been fully paid fro j the results, of a foreclosure sal. j the person owning the property ! ifi a homestead claim, shal ! receive what mar remain, th i other judgement creditors beiu barre !. Heretofore, when a horn- ! stea ; has been sold to satisfy . mortgag-, hi other judgemen i crelitors bar.; received whatevt ! balanoi may remiin. The de 1 cisio , if sustain 3d by the Saprem Court, wi'd be far-reaching and o importance to many peopl thro-ighoit th? state. Notice o. an ij'p-.il to the Supreme Cour was given. CDnieY. Wade brought a fore closure suit against Lundin and bis property was sold. There w: 1 a resi 1 je of some $1,000 remaining : after t ie lien of the plaintiff a satisfied and Beti3 Paxton, as a judgement creditor, with a lim next in line to that of Jennie Wadi brought c'aim for the money. Lundin also filed an npplieati'. l 1 for the money, claiming that as he bad resided on the premises for ti e last 12 years and it. was homestead property he was entitled to tin balance of the money. In deci !ing the case th court sail in part: "It appear. from the i.ivestigalion made by this court that possibly with om or two except ions the tendency ii. the courts 01 all the stales is to ware a liberal constru tio 1 an 1 appli cation of the homestead law. But in any event, the reat weight of authority, especially in recent years, is against the t ontention of the defendant B :ssi3 Paxton, and directly contrary 10 the rule laid down in the authorities cited by her couns !. "The courts have generally held that where a mongage upon a homestead and other real estate is being foreclosed, the mortgagor has a right as against the mortasjee. and against all o'.i.er lien holders, whos-3 rights arj not prior or su perior to those of the holder of the mortgage, to require that before the homestead shall tie resorted to for the purpose of satisfying the mortgage debt all other mortgaged perty shall be txbausted, but it is generally hel 1' that where on fereclosure proceedings homestead pro i -riy is neluded with other property sold on execution the mortgagor is entitle 1 to the stir plus proceeds of the sale after tin satisfaction of the mortgage, a. against judgement creditors, al though no .;.. n A ho.n.-tea was made until after the sale of ti property and while the proeee 1 were in the hands of the oflicer. " It is the intention of the!:;, that every man should be en;.bl. to preserve a h tine for his f.;rni!y that if it is converted a'aiiint lie will, he should be entitled t th. proceeds for the purpose of pro curing a home, and if lie waves hi homwstpnd right !t n n-rfait indebtdnes? by mortgage, or other wise; he should not on that a. count be deemed to have waivwl as to other indebtedness, but tliat except where so waived it should bi preserved and it should be pie served and he should be protect, in its use and enjoyment. "Of Course the defendant Lundin is entitled to this surplus only fo the purpose of procuring another homestead. If at any time is should appear that said defendant had no intention of nroenrin? an- oiher homestead with such funds, ', or if at any time he should ab.ui-. don such intention, the sum would ! :t. onc3 become subject to execution j iji the payment of his U.'bts.
