Head Matter:
Wallace v. Dunning et al.
Where a complainant parted with his interest in a mortgage before answer, it was held a good objection to the suit.
Bill to foreclose a mortgage.
Before answer, and after filing his bill, complainant assigned all his interest in the mortgage, and defendant put in a plea stating that fact.
O. D. Richardson, in support of the plea.
M. L. Drake, contra.

Opinion:
The Chancellor.
The plea must be allowed. The complainant has put himself out of Court, by parting with his interest in the mortgage. Defendant has a right to object that the party in interest is not before the Court. Mills v. Hoag, 7 Paige R. 18; Field v. Maghee, 5 Paige R. 539.
