I think this motion should have been granted. The defendant Eisert was awarded substantial relief by the judgment, although he had not answered - in the action and took no part in the trial. He, however, appeared by counsel as a respondent upon the appeal and sought to sustain the judgment in his favor. Upon the appeal, the decision of this court was against him and an order was entered modifying the judgment by striking out the clause in Ms favor. This order, after reciting that counsel appeared “ for said plaintiff and for said defendant Eisert, respondents,” modified the judgment and further ordered that as so modified the judgment “is hereby affirmed, with costs to appellants against respondents.” Whether or not the defendant Eisert appeared in the court below, or answered, is not material as to the responsioility for the costs of the appeal. He did appear in this court as a respondent, and insisted that the clauses of the judgment which were in his favor should be retained in the judgment, and he be awarded the relief that that judgment gave him. This court held that he was not entitled to have the relief awarded to him by the judgment, and modified it and gave costs against him on the appeal. The motion below was to modify the judgment entered upon the remittitur from this court, so as to award costs in this court against the plaintiff, one of the respondents, and Eisert, the other respondent, as provided for by the order of this court. It is not proposed to hold Eisert responsible for the costs of the trial in Trial Term, but only the costs imposed by this court on the appeal in which he appeared as respondent and sought to retain the benefit of a judgment to which he was not entitled.
