SHARP against MOORE.
    OH CERTIORARI.
    Assignee of a judgment or execution, may not sue in his own name.
    The action below was brought by Moore in his own name, on an execution assigned to him. To this judgment it was objected,
    1st. That an execution, even if assignable, was yet [*] a chose in action; and that the action could not be brought in the name of the assignee.
    2d. That although a judgment could be assigned, yet that an execution could not.
   By the CotiitT.

The assignee cannot maintain an action, in his own name, even on a judgment.

Judgment reversed.
