    George Taber et al., Resp’ts, v. William J. Gilfillan and Dorcas Prime, App’lts.
    
      (Supreme Court, General Term, Second Department,
    
    
      Filed December 8, 1890.)
    
    1. Undertaking—Liability of sureties fob costs gbanted by appellate coubt.
    Where the court oí appeals awards costs in favor of certain of the res-pendents and judgment is entered on its remittitur, it is no defense to an action against the sureties upon the undertaking that the record does not show that these particular respondents appeared and argued the appeal in that court.
    2. Attorney—Appearance.
    It is too late after final judgment to object to the appearance of an attorney for respondents to whose clients cost were awarded.
    Appeal from judgment in favor of plaintiffs, entered upon verdict directed by the court.
    
      P. V. B. Stanton, for app’lts; James & Thomas H. Troy, for resp’ts.
   Barnard, P. J.

The defendants were sureties upon appeal to the court of appeals in an action where William Cole was plaintiff and Charles E. Frost and others were defendants. Among the defendants were Harriett A. Daly, George Taber and Augusta M. Ferguson, the present plaintiffs. They were respondents upon the appeal to the court of appeals. The judgment was thereon affirmed, with costs to respondents against the appellants upon the appeals.

Judgment was entered upon the remittitur in the supreme court containing this clause:

That the defendants Harriett A. Daly, George Taber and Augusta M. Ferguson as respondents, appearing jointly in their own behalf on said last mentioned appeal, recover of the said appellants therein, Charles E. Frost, individually and as executor and trustee as aforesaid, and Thomas E. Simmons, the sum of $91.22 for “ their costs and disbursements of said appeal.”

The present action is brought upon the undertaking on appeal. There is no defense to the action. The judgment of the court of appeals gave the plaintiffs costs, and the judgment in the supreme court followed it. The judgment is not paid. The record in the court of appeals does not show that these particular plaintiffs, respondents, appeared and argued the appeal in that court, and this fact is claimed as a defense in the presence of express words giving costs to the plaintiffs by name upon the appeal as respondents.

There is no force in the objection. It is too late after final judgment to object to the appearance of Hughes, who was the attorney for the plaintiffs in the court of appeals, and to whose clients costs were awarded. .

The judgment should, therefore, be affirmed, with costs.
