   FITZSIMORS, J.

— The complaint contains, we think, all the necessary allegations. Morton v. Tucker, 145 N. Y. 244 ; 64 St. Rep. 685.

It was not necessary to obtain leave of the court to bring an action against the sureties on the bond. It took the place of the liened property, and only the same proceedings were necessary to prosecute the bond as were required to foreclose the lien. Under the complaint, the plaintiff was entitled to a judgment of foreclosure. That being so, lie had the right to a judgment against the sureties on the bond.

The judgment should be affirmed, with costs.

All concur.
