    Collins v. Burton, et als.
    
    Appeal from Birmingham City Court.
    Tried before the Hon. W. W. Wilkerson.
    Lane & White, for appellant.
    Georoe A. Evans and D. J. Ponceler, for appellee.
    This action ivas brought by the appellant against the appellees on a 'constable’s bond, -claiming -damages for a levy made by the constable up-on property upon which the plaintiff -claimed a lien under a recorded judgment. The -case was tried by the -court below without the intervention of a jury, and a judgment was rendered in favor o-f the defendants.
    The plaintiff’s right -of action is based upon the validity of the lien asserted in the -complaint. Without a lien there is no pretence -o-f a right -of -action. The registry of the judgment under which the lien is claimed failed to state the name of the owner of the judgment. The court holds that this was prerequisite to the creation of a lien under the statute authorizing the registry of .judgments or decrees. — See Duncan v. Ashcraft, 121 Ala. 552. The plaintiff having no lien upon the property in question was not entitled to a judgment under any phase of the case.
    The judgment of the circuit court is affirmed.
