    . MOTION, to set aside two judgments, disallowed by Buxton, J.T at Spring Term 1868 of the Superior Court of Northampton.
    The notice preliminary to the motion, was given in the names of Thomas P. Burgwyn, - a defendant in the judgments,, and also of W. W. Peebles, who was a trustee for the creditors of Burgwyn, under an assignment made by the latter after the entry of the judgment.

Afterwards the motion being renewed on behalf of Mr. Peebles, the latter applied for leave to. show that the two judgments were given upon the same bond, but the Courtbeing ot opinion that Ae could notbe heard to attack the judgments, the motion was dismissed as to him also; and ■thereupon, he appealed.

This was a motion to set aside two judgments, the one recovered at Spring Term 1866, the other at Pall 'Term 1866, of the Superior Court of Northampton County* 'On the ground that both were recovered on the same specialty. The motion was not made by the defendants in the judgments, ■dr either of them, but by Peebles, who was an assignee from "T. P. Burgwyn of certain property.

No one but a defendant in a judgment can complain of its irregularity, Shelton v. Fels, Phil. 178; Cody v. Quinn, 6 Ire. 191.

This stands on the maxim “ quisque renunciare potesf juri ■rpro se introducto

Peebles was the assignee of certain property from T. P, Burgwyn, and we must assume that this property was affected ‘by the judgments and executions thereon. But he did not, like ■ .¡an assignee in bankruptcy, represent the creditors or the .general pecuniary interests of his grantor. The best position that he can occupy is that of a purchaser, who takes “ cum «<mere.”

If we assume that the two judgments were issued on the same .•specialty, it does not follow that either of them was irregular. A judgment may be fraudulent and void as to creditors, but .■still regular, and in that case the Court cannot set it aside, 'The creditor nevertheless has his appropriate remedy. There is no error in the judgment below, the plaintiff Jacobs must necover his costs. Let this opinion be certified.

We take occasion here to call the attention of Judges to § .241 of the Code of Civil Procedure, and of counsel to § 242. We call the attention of the Clerk to the fact that this case ¡should have been entitled — Peebles v. Jacobs, and to other Irregularities in the making up of his record. Officers neglecting the provisions of the Code are not entitled to costs.

Pee Curiam. Judgment affirmed.
