Hanson as receiver directing him to take into his possession the property belonging to the parties including the promissory note in suit; ordering the payment by the receiver from the assets coming into his possession of alimony and attorneys' fees in the amounts therein specified, and continuing in force the restraining order theretofore issued to the extent that disposition of the property was not otherwise authorized by the order. A copy of this order was served upon the bank on June 17, 1949, and on June 29th the bank surrendered to the receiver the property of the parties in its possession, including the promissory note in suit. On July 27th the receiver advised respondents of his appointment, and demanded payment of the instalment which became due on July1st, as well as all future payments to become due thereon. Despite this, however, the respondents during the month of August made two payments upon the note to the husband payee, one in the sum of $70.06 and the other in the sum of $35.03. Also during the month of September respondents made another payment of $35.03 to the payee.
 On November 15, 1949, an interlocutory decree was entered in the divorce action whereby it was adjudged that the note in suit was a community property of the parties, and the same together with other property therein described was awarded to the appellant. Pursuant to this decree the receiver delivered possession of the note to her and she thereupon instituted the present action.
