/ -f [582] jones i'. bailey. Dec. 16, 1853. The relief to which a judgment creditor is entitled, under the 1 & 2 Viet. c. 110 (sect. 13), ia a foreclosure, and not a sale. The Plaintiff obtained a charge on the Defendant's real estates, by virtue of a judgment obtained in 1852, and under the provisions of the 1 & 2 Viet. c. 110. He filed the present bill, praying a declaration of the validity of the charge on the estate, and in default of payment, for a sale of the estate and payment thereout of the debt and costs. A question arose, whether the Plaintiff was entitled to a sale or foreclosure. Mr. Fleming, for the Plaintiff, insisted on his right to a sale. He referred to the 15 & 16 Viet. c. 86 (sect. 48). The Defendant did not appear. the master of the bolls [Sir John Romilly]. The Plaintiff has that which is equivalent to an agreement to execute a legal mortgage ; and if that were done, the Plaintiff would only be entitled to a foreclosure. I think he is entitled to that decree, and shall order accordingly. I cannot on. this record act upon the recent statute, in the absence of the Defendant. note.- See Pain v.
