Code Civ. Pro., § 1295.

4 When person entitled to become a party may appeal. A person aggrieved, who is not a party, but is entitled by law to be substituted, in place of a party; or who has acquired, since the making of the order, or the rendering of the judgment appealed from, an interest, which would have entitled him to be so substituted, if it had been previously acquired, may also appeal, as prescribed in this chapter,* for an appeal by a party. But the appeal cannot be heard, until he has been substituted in place of the party; and if he unreasonably neglects to procure an order of substitution, the appeal may be dismissed, upon motion of the respondent. Code Civ. Pro., § 1296.

5 Appeal where successful party has died; undertaking. Where the adverse party has died, since the making of the order, or the rendering of the judgment appealed from, or where the judgment appealed from was rendered, after his death, in a case prescribed by law, an appeal may be taken, as if he was living; but it cannot be heard, until the heir, devisee, executor, or administrator, as the case requires, has been substituted as the respondent. In such a case, an undertaking required to perfect the appeal, or to stay the execution of the judgment or order appealed from, must recite the fact of the adverse party's death; and the undertaking enures, after substitution, to the benefit of the person substituted. Code Civ. Pro., § 1297.

6 Proceedings where party dies pending appeal. Where either party to an appeal dies, before the appeal is heard, or has heretofore died and the appeal has not been heard; if an order, substituting another person in his place, is not made, within three months after his death, or, where he has heretofore died, within three months after this section takes effect, the court, in which the appeal is pending, may, in its discretion, make an order, requiring all persons interested in the decedent's estate, to show cause before it, why the judgment or order appealed from should not be reversed or affirmed, or the appeal dismissed, as the case requires. The order must specify a day, when cause is to be shown, which must be not less than six months after making the order; and it must designate the mode of giving notice to the persons interested. Upon the return day of the order, or at a subsequent day, appointed by the court, if the proper person has not been substituted, the court, upon proof, by affidavit, that notice has been given, as required by the order, may reverse or affirm the judgment or order appealed from, or dismiss the appeal, or make such further order in the premises, as justice requires. Code Civ. Pro., § 1298, as am'd L. 1877, c. 416.

9 When notice of appeal to specify interlocutory judgment, etc. Where the appeal is from a final judgment, or from a final order in a special proceeding, and the appellant intends to bring up, for review thereupon, an interlocutory judgment, or an intermediate order, he must, in the notice of appeal, distinctly specify the interlocutory judgment, or intermediate order, to be reviewed.

10 Proceedings if service cannot be made on attorney or party.

If personal service upon the respondent cannot, with due diligence, be so made within the state, the notice of appeal may be served upon him, and notice of the subsequent proceedings may be given to him, as directed by a judge of the court, in or to which the appeal is taken. Code Civ. Pro., § 1302.

15 Hun, 375; 38 id. 241; 5 N. Y. Supp. 781.

11 When omissions may be supplied. Where the appellant, seasonably and in good faith, serves the notice of appeal, either upon the clerk or upon the adverse party, or his attorney, but omits, through mistake, inadvertence, or excusable neglect, to serve it upon the other, or to do any other act, necessary to perfect the appeal, or to stay the execution of the judgment or order appealed from; the court, in or to which the appeal is taken, upon proof, by affidavit, of the facts, may, in its discretion, permit the omission to be supplied, or an amendment to be made, upon such terms as justice requires.

upon the application of a party or other person, entitled to take such an appeal, make an order, requiring the omission to be supplied, within a specified time after service of a copy of the order made by him. Upon proof, by affidavit, that a copy of the latter order has been served, and that the omission has not been supplied, the same judge may make, upon notice, an order revoking and annulling the original order. The provisions of the last section but one apply to the service of an order, or a notice, as prescribed in this section. Code Civ. Pro., § 1304.

An undertaking, which the appellant is required, by this chapter,* to give, or any other act which he is so required to do, for the security of the respondent, may be waived by the written consent of the respondent. Code Civ. Pro., § 1305.

14 Deposit in lieu of undertaking. Where the appellant is required, by this chapter,* to give an undertaking, he may, in lieu thereof, deposit with the clerk, with whom the judgment or order appealed from is entered, a sum of money, equal to the amount, for which the undertaking is required to be given. The deposit has the same effect, as filing the undertaking; and notice that it has been made, has the same effect, as notice of the filing and service of a copy of the undertaking. The court, wherein the appeal is pending, may direct the mode, in which the money shall be kept and disposed of, during the pendency, or after the determination of the appeal. Code Civ. Pro., § 1306.

15 Undertaking, where filed. An undertaking, given as prescribed in this chapter,* must be filed with the clerk, with whom the judgment or order appealed from is entered. Code Civ. Pro., § 1307.

16 New undertaking to be given, when sureties are insolvent, etc. The court, in which the appeal is pending, upon satisfactory proof, by affidavit, that since the execution of an undertaking, given as prescribed in this chapter, one or more of the sureties therein have become insolvent; or that his or their circumstances have become so precarious that there is reason to apprehend, that the undertaking is not sufficient for the security of the respondent; may make an order, requiring the appellant to file a new undertaking, and to serve a copy thereof, as required with respect to the original undertaking. If the appellant fails so to do, within twenty days after the service of a copy of the order, or such further time as the court allows, the appeal must be dismissed, or the order or judgment, from which the appeal is taken, must be executed, as if the original undertaking had not been given. Code Civ. Pro., § 1308, as am'd L. 1895, c. 946. 15 How. Pr. 310; 1 Keyes. 483; 72 N. Y. 613: 109 id. 646; 63 Hun, 45; 2 Misc. 574; 43 N. Y. St. R. 99; 51 id. 610; 17 N. Y. Supp. 566; 22 id. 539.

An action shall not

Such service may be made by mailing such notice in a postpaid wrapper, addressed to said surety or sureties at the last known post-office address of such surety or sureties. Where an appeal to the court of appeals from that judgment or order is perfected, and security is given thereupon, to stay the execution of the judgment or order appealed from, an action shall not be maintained upon the undertaking given upon the preceding appeal, until after the final determination of the appeal to the court of appeals.

18 When appeal stays proceedings; effect thereof. Where an appeal to the general term of any court, or to the appellate division of the supreme court, or to the court of appeals or otherwise, has been heretofore or shall hereafter be perfected, as prescribed in this chapter,* and the other acts, if any, required to be done, to stay the execution of the judgment or order appealed from, have been done, the appeal stays all proceedings to enforce the judgment or order appealed from; except that the court or judge, from whose determination the appeal is taken, may proceed in any matter included in the action or special proceeding, and not affected by the judgment or order appealed from or not embraced within the appeal; or may cause perishable property to be sold, pursuant to the judgment or order appealed from. The proceeds of such a sale must be paid, to abide the result of the appeal, into the court from or in which the appeal is taken; or, if it was taken as prescribed in title fifth of this chapter, into the supreme court. When an appeal from a judgment for rent has been perfected and execution stayed as herein provided, the appeal stays all summary proceedings, pending or otherwise, to recover the possession of real property or dispossess tenants therefrom, based on the failure to pay the rent included in the judgment appealed from. Code Civ. Pro., § 1310, as am'd L. 1893, c. 4, and L. 1895, c. 946. 63 N. Y. 318; 71 id. 430; 92 id. 581, 583; 4 How. Pr. 210; 3 How. Pr. N. S. 387; 26 Barb. 55; 9 Abb.

19 Levy upon personal property, when superseded by appeal. Where an appeal, taken, from a final judgment, to the court of appeals, has been perfected, and the security, required to stay the execution of the judgment, has been given; or where the security, given upon an appeal, taken from a final judgment of the supreme court, a county court or the city court of the city of New York, is equal to that required to perfect an appeal to the court of appeals, and to stay the execution of the judgment; the court, in which the judgment appealed from was rendered, may, in its discretion, and upon such term as justice requires, make an order, upon notice to the respondent, and the sureties in the undertaking, discharging a levy upon personal property, made by virtue of an execution, issued upon the judgment appealed from. But this section does not authorize the discharge of a levy, made by virtue of a warrant of attachment. Code Civ. Pro., § 1311, as am'd L. 1895, c. 946.

20 When security dispensed with or limited. Where an appeal is taken, as prescribed in title second or fourth of this chapter, the court, in or from which the appeal is taken; or, where an appeal is taken as prescribed in title third or fifths of this chapter, the court, to which the appeal is taken; may, in its discretion, make an order, upon notice to the respondent, dispensing with or limiting the security, required to stay the execution of the judgment or order appealed from, as follows:

1. Where the appellant is an executor, administrator, trustee, or other person acting in another's right, the security may be dispensed with or limited, in the discretion of the court.
