Supreme Court of Pennsylvania May 15, 1865 (Schick's Appeal)

The opinion of the court was delivered, by

Woodward, C. J.

The proceedings in this case are so irregular that they cannot be sustained. Ever since Shultz’s Appeal, 1 Barr 251, it has been considered that in questions of distribution, those creditors only who unite in asking for an issue to contest an older lien can derive any benefit from a successful contest of such lien.
