What follows is an opinion from a United States Court of Appeals.
Intervenors who participated as parties at the courts of appeals should be counted as either appellants or respondents when it can be determined whose position they supported. For example, if there were two plaintiffs who lost in district court, appealed, and were joined by four intervenors who also asked the court of appeals to reverse the district court, the number of appellants should be coded as six.
When coding the detailed nature of participants, use your personal knowledge about the participants, if you are completely confident of the accuracy of your knowledge, even if the specific information is not in the opinion. For example, if "IBM" is listed as the appellant it could be classified as "clearly national or international in scope" even if the opinion did not indicate the scope of the business. 

Your task concerns the first listed appellant. The nature of this litigant falls into the category "miscellaneous", specifically "other". Your task is to determine which of the following specific subcategories best describes the litigant.

W. H. Rager, of Anchorage, Alaska, for appellee Jewel Gold Mining Co.
Before GILBERT, HUNT, and RUD-KIN, Circuit Judges.
RUDKIN, Circuit Judge.
This case was
before this-court on writ of error in Dikeman v. Jewel Gold Mining Co., 2 F.(2d) 665, where a full, statement of the facts may be found. After the writ of error was there dismissed for want of jurisdiction, the plaintiffs in the court below petitioned that court for an order directing a resale of the property of the Jewel Gold Mining Company, the lessor, to satisfy the balance due on the personal decrees against the lessee. The present appeal is from an order denying that petition. As will appear from the statement referred to, personal decrees were entered in favor of the several plaintiffs and against the lessee, Jewel Mining Syndicate, but no relief was awarded against the lessor, Jewel Gold Mining Company, beyond a decree establishing certain liens against its property and directing a sale thereof to satisfy them.
Briefly stated, the appellants now contend that the redemption by the lessee reinstated their liens against the property of the lessor, and the property should be resold to satisfy those liens. On the other hand, the appellees contend that the liens against the property of the lessor were exhausted by the sale, and that the same property cannot be resold to satisfy the same demands, even though there has been a redemption from the prior sale. This latter contention must be sustained. As is well known, the Alaska statute was taken from the laws of Oregon, and both sides invoke the construction placed on the laws of Oregon by its Supreme Court. In Flanders v. Aumack, 32 Or. 19, 51 P. 447, 67 Am. St. Rep. 504, it was held that the redemption of real property from an execution sale by the grantee of the judgment debtor, when the property was bid in for less than the amount of the judgment, reinstates the lien.for the unpaid balance, and a resale of the property may be had to satisfy the same. But the court was careful to distinguish between specific liens and general judgment liens. Thus, it was said:
“A mortgage is a specific lien, which attaches by virtue of the contract of the parties concerned; but the lien of a judgment is general, and attaches by operation of law, as a sequence of its rendition. Foreclosure is a remedy by which the property covered by the mortgage may be subjected to sale for the payment of the demand for which the mortgage stands as security, and, when the decree is had and the property sold to satisfy it, the mortgagee has obtained all he contracted for; but, if there is also a personal decree against the mortgage debtor, this becomes, from the date of its docketing, a general.lien upon his real property, as in ease of a judgment; and, if a deficiency remains after the; application of the proceeds of the sale of the lands covered by the mortgage, the decree may be enforced by execution, as in ordinary cases. * * • The resale does not take place under the order for the sale of the specific property covered by the mortgage lien, for that has been exhausted, but under the personal decree which remains as a deficiency decree against the mortgage debtor after the application of the proceeds arising under the order of sale; and a redemption will not reinstate the specific mortgage lien, while it will the general lien acquired by the personal decree. This distinction is clear, and is bottomed both upon principle and authority. The redemption is from the sale, and not from the mortgage; and if the lien of the personal decree has never attached, by reason of the mortgagor not having the fee of the property at the time it was rendered, there never existed any lien to be reinstated against his successor in interest, who purchased prior to the decree.”
See, also, Williams v. Wilson, 42 Or. 299, 70 P. 1031, 95 Am. St. Rep. 745.
It will thus be seen that, under the decisions of the Supreme Court of Oregon, the specific liens against the property of the lessor were exhausted by the sale, and were not reinstated by the subsequent redemption.
The decree is therefore affirmed.
