50 Ark.] NOVEMBER TERM, 1887. 457 Cox v. Lee. revoked his order for the supersedeas and recalled it. The officer having the execution then proceeded to sell the property and Cox bought it. Lee recovered it from him in an action of replevin brought before another justice. Cox appealed to the circuit court, and from a judgment rendered there against him has appealed to tms court. Davis & Bullock and Hall & Lewers, for appellants. The schedule filed by appellee was not a proper one, 40 Ark., 352, and the supersedeas improperly issued. It was the duty of the justice to recall it; and one justice of the peace has no jurisdiction to set aside, reinstate, ignore, supervise, or amend, the proceedings of another. Part of the judgment was for purchase money of property scheduled, and this property could not be scheduled. Mansf. Dig., sec. 4398. The schedule was not supported by the affidavit required by law. Act, March 9, 1877; 41 Ark., 249; 47 Id., 400; 40 Id., 352. The supersedeas being improperly issued, was properly recalled by the justice. Clendenning & Read, for appellee. The supersedeas having once issued, the justice lost all control over it, and could not recall it. An appeal was the only remedy. The justice certainly could not recall it without notice to Lee. Mansf. Dig., sec. 5201. It does not appear in the record that any part of the demand sued on, was for purchase money of part of the property scheduled. But if it was, it was appellants' duty to have asserted their right when the schedule was filed. 46 Ark., 493.
