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 terms 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 sec tion does not authorize the discharge of a levy, made by virtue of a warrant of attachment.

Where an appeal from an order, or a part of an order. is taken as prescribed in title second, third, and fifth of this chap ter, the appellant must, within the same time, cause a certified copy of the notice of appeal, of the order, and of the papers upon which the order was founded, to be transmitted to the appellate court, by the same clerk. If the appellant fails so to do, the re spondent may cause those papers to be so transmitted; and he is entitled to tax the expense thereof, as a disbursement, where he recovers costs. The clerk of the appellate court must file the papers so transmitted; and, except where it is otherwise specially prescribed by law, the appeal must be heard upon them.

§ 1316. Interlocutory judgment, or intermediate order, may be reviewed.

The right to review an interlocutory judgment, or an intermediate order. as prescribed in this section, is not affected by the expiration of the time, within which a separate appeal therefrom might have been taken.

Predicated on Co. Proc., § 329.

§ 1317. [Am'd, 1895.] Judgment or order on appeal. Upon an appeal from a judgment or an order, the appella division of the supreme court, or general term, to which the appeal is taken, may reverse or affirm, wholly or partly, or may modify, the judgment or order appealed from, and each inter locutory judgment or intermediate order, which it is authoriz:i to review, as specified in the notice of appeal, and as to any all of the parties, and it may, if necessary or proper, grant new trial or hearing. A judgment, affirming wholly or partly a judgment, from which an appeal has been taken, shall no expressly and in terms, award to the respondent, a sum money, or other relief, which was awarded to him by the judg ment so affirmed.

See Co. Proc., § 330; L. 1895, ch. 946.

§ 1318. When no appeal lies from judgment of reversal Where a judgment, from which an appeal is taken, is reversed upon the appeal, and a new trial is granted, an appeal canne be taken from the judgment of reversal; but upon an appes from the order granting a new trial, taken, as prescribed by law the judgment of reversal must also be reviewed.

§ 1319. Mode of enforcing affirmed or modified judgment. Where a judgment, from which an appeal has been taken, from one court to another, is wholly or partly affirmed, or is modified, upon the appeal, it must be enforced, by the court in which it was rendered, to the extent permitted by the determination of the appellate court, as if the appeal therefrom had not been taken.

§ 1320. Id.; as to order.

Where a final order, from which an appeal has been taken, from one court to another, as prescribed in title fifth of this chapter, is wholly or partly affirmed, or is modified, upon the appeal, the appellate court may enforce its order, or may direct the proceedings to be remitted, for that purpose, to the court below, or to the judge who made the order appealed from.

§ 1321. Mode of cancelling docket of reversed or modified judgment.

Where a final judgment for a sum of money, or directing the payment of a sum of money, has been reversed, or has been affirmed as to part only of the sum, upon an appeal, taken as prescribed in title third or fourth of this chapter; and an appeal to the court of appeals is not taken and perfected, and the security required to stay execution is not given, within ten days after the entry of the judgment upon the appeal, in the clerk's office where the judgment appealed from is entered, the clerk must make a minute of the reversal of the judgment, or of the amount to which it has been reduced, upon his docket-book, in each place, where the judgment is docketed. A transcript of the docket, as thus corrected, must be furnished by him, and may be filed in any county clerk's office, where the original judgment is docketed, as prescribed by law, with respect to the original docket; and thereupon the county clerk must correct his docket accordingly. The lien of a judgment, the docket of which is not corrected, as prescribed in this section, remains unaffected by the reversal or modification thereof, until the decision of the court of appeals, upon an appeal from the judgment reversing or modifying the same, or the expiration of the time to take such an appeal.

§ 1322. Id.; when reversal, etc., was by court of appeals. Where a final judgment for a sum of money, or directing the payment of a sum of money, has been reversed, or affirmed as to part only of the sum, upon an appeal to the court of appeals, the docket may be corrected, as prescribed in the last section, at any time after the remittitur has been filed in the court below.

§ 1323. [Am'd, 1877, 1880.] Restitution; when awarded. Where a final judgment or order is reversed or modified, upon appeal, the appellate court, or the general term of the same court, as the case may be, may make or compel restitution of property or of a right, lost by means of the erroneous judgment or order; but not so as to affect the title of a purchaser, in good faith and for value. Where property has been sold, the court may compel the value, or the purchase price, to be restored, or deposited to abide the event of the action, as justice requires. When the appeal is from a judgment in favor of the owner of

real estate, in an action to compel the specific performance of a contract for the sale thereof, such owner shall have the same right to sell or dispose of the same as though no appeal had been taken; unless the appellant shall file with the clerk of the court a written undertaking in a sum fixed by the court, or a judge thereof, upon a notice to the respondent of at least ten days, and to be approved by such court or judge, to the effect that the appellant will, in case the judgment appealed from shall be affirmed, pay to such owner such damages as he may suffer by reason of such appeal, not exceeding the amount of the penalty in such undertaking. Such undertaking may be filed at any time during the appeal, but any sale of such real estate or contract to sell the same in good faith and for a valuable consideration, after said judgment and before the filing of such undertaking, shall be as valid as if such undertaking had not been filed. In case such undertaking shall not be filed, the respondent shall be entitled, at any time during such appeal, to an order discharging of record any notice of pendency of action filed in the action, and also cancelling and discharging of record said contract, in case the same has been recorded. Substitute for Co. Proc., part of § 330.
