   OPINION OP THE COURT.

ROBERTS, C. J.

J. R. Baker and George E. Gano, partners doing business under the firm name “Bock Milling & Elevator Company,” obtained judgment against the petitioner in the district court of Colfax county for the sum of $13,500 and costs. From this judgment the petitioner appealed to this court, without filing a supersedeas bond. Execution upon -this judgment was issued at the instance of the judgment creditors, which was returned nulla bona, whereupon proceedings supplementary to execution were commenced under section 2214. Code 1915, by such judgment creditors. The,trial court, over objection, held that such judgment creditors were entitled to the remedy, and appointed one Henry Hiker as referee to conduct an examination regarding the property of the defendant.

On February 14, 1915, petitioner filed its application in this court for writ of certiorari to bring up the record, and for a writ of prohibition restraining and enjoining the lower court and its officers from proceeding further under such supplementary proceedings, setting out various grounds wherein it challenged the jurisdiction of the court to so proceed. A temporary writ and order to show cause was issued. Thereafter, on April 29, 1915, this court modified the judgment entered in the original proceeding, reducing the amount of recovery to $9,000, and remanded the cause to the district court for further proceedings. Such being the status of the case, the original execution is functus officio; hence the district court presumably will not attempt to proceed further to enforce the same.

'' For reasons stated, the writ will be denied; and it is so ordered.
