But Forman’s judgment only ascertained, as between himself'and the appellant, that he had the better right to the possession.- It is no evidence against Ambler; and when he seeks to enforce his judgment for eviction, he is not bound to enquire how, or from whom, or when, the person in possession, and against whom he has judgs ment, acquired the possession which he is holding against him. After Ambler obtained his judgment, the appellant, as long as that judgment remained unreversed and unsatified, could not defeat or evade it by any act Wfiths out the consent or fault of Ambler; and, of course, could not hold the possession against Ambler’s execution, and in defiance of its authoritative mandate.
