Seligman v. Kalkman (1860) 17 Cal. 152, involved a suit upon a California judgment dissolving a partnership and directing an account. The referee's report finding plaintiffs to be creditors in specified amounts was approved and the partnership assets ordered distributed accordingly. When the creditors sued to establish such judgment as a judgment against a partner, the trial court found for the defendants. Affirming the judgment for the defendants, the court said ( id., at p. 162): "The evidence in this case was not sufficient to maintain the action. It was necessary for the plaintiffs to show a personal judgment to entitle them to recover; and the record in Meyer v. Kalkman, 6 Cal. 582, was insufficient for that purpose."
