Analysis
No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.
Opinion — Heydenfeldt
Heydenfeldt, Justice, delivered the opinion of the court. Murray, Chief Justice, concurred.
Although a sheriff’s deputy may execute a deed for property sold under execution, he must execute it in the name of the sheriff. This principle has been settled by a long current of authorities, and as it is decisive of this action, it is unnecessary to enter into the consideration of the other cpiestions raised on the record.
Judgment reversed, and cause remanded.
