Opinion of the Court
Per Curiam.

Per Curiam.

This is a foreclosure case in which the final decree was against the mortgagors. The order striking the answer of the mortgagor’s wife questioning the validity of her acknowledgment of the mortgage was properly made by the court on the authority of Herald v. Hardin, 95 Fla. 889, 116 Sou. Rep. 863. The final decree foreclosing the mortgage was entered after full hearing on the merits and does not appear to be clearly erroneous, so it must be affirmed on the authority of Tunnicliffe v. Volusia County Bond & Mortgage Co. (Fla.), 137 Sou. Rep. 885.

Affirmed.

Davis, C. J., and Ellis and Terrell, J. J., concur.

Whitfield, P. J., and Brown and Buford, J. J., concur in the opinion and judgment.

Our analysis of the law on this subject is supported by the clear principles of law enunciated on the subject of lower court jurisdiction with supersedeas. In State ex rel. Martarano v. Robles, 109 Fla. 528, 532, 147 So. 910, 911-12 (1933), the Supreme Court stated: “ . . . since a supersedeas is ordinarily to stay or suspend the execution of a decree already rendered, and not to suspend other proceedings in the cause further adjudicating the rights o…

[S]ince a supersedeas is ordinarily to stay or suspend the execution of a decree already rendered, and not to suspend other proceedings in the cause further adjudicating the rights of the parties, unless to do so would, in effec…
