    BRODIE v. HOGAN.
    (Supreme Court, Special Term, Kings Comity.
    July 18, 1912.)
    1. Execution (§ 402*)—Execution Against Wages—Provisions of Obdeb.
    Under Code Civ. Proc. § 1391, providing that, where any wages, etc., are or shall become due the judgment debtor, the court shall, upon application, order that execution issue against such wages, which “shall become a lien and a continuing levy upon the wages, and said levy shall be a continuing levy until said execution and the expenses thereof are fully satisfied,” an order directing an execution to issue against wages should not provide that the levy shall become a continuing levy until the execution and expenses thereof, “together with $2.85, actual disbursements incurred since obtaining said judgment, which are hereby allowed upon this proceeding, are fully satisfied and paid”; the allowance of the additional sum not being authorized.
    [Ed. Note.—For other cases, see Execution, Cent. Dig. §§ 1156-1159; Dec. Dig. § 402.*]
    2. Execution (§ 402*)—Obdeb Directing Issuance—Place of Application.
    Orderly practice requires that an order directing the issuance of an execution against wages should be applied for in the judicial district where the judgment debtor lives.

    Action by one Brodie against one Hogan. On motion for the issuance of execution. Motion denied.
    Wm. Mahler, of New York City, for plaintiff.
    Henry Salant, of New York City, for defendant.
   BLACKMAR, J.

This is one of fourteen cases by the same plaintiff against different defendants. In each of them application is made for the issuance of an execution against wages pursuant to section 1391 of the Code of Civil Procedure. It appears that the defendant in each action resides in the city of New York; that judgments in all the actions were entered in the county of Onondaga upon confession; that they are all for small sums of money, most of them below $50 in amount; that transcripts of the judgments were filed and docketed in New York county; that executions were issued “out of” the Supreme Court of Onondaga county, which have been returned wholly unsatisfied. The affidavit then avers that a certain definite amount has been actually expended, or will necessarily be expended, upon this execution as sheriff’s fees and in obtaining certified copies of the order herein and the execution, and that the judgment debtor is employed by the city of New York. An order for the issuance of an execution is then prayed for to the justice sitting in Kings County.

[ 1 ] The proposed order in each case recites:

“That the said levy shall become a continuing levy until said execution and the expenses thereof, together with $2.85 actual disbursements incurred since obtaining said judgment, which are hereby allowed upon this proceeding, are fully satisfied and paid.”

Whatever may be said of the regularity of this proceeding, there is no warrant in law that I am aware of to authorize a judge to issue an order containing this last-quoted clause. The statute says that the levy shall be a continuing levy until said execution and the expenses thereof are fully satisfied and paid. This proposed order contains the so-called allowance of an additional sum which is not authorized by the statute.

It seems to me that orderly practice requires that this order should be applied for in the First district, where the judgment debtor lives.

Motion denied.
