(a) Creditors of either municipal corporation, on account of obligations made prior to consolidation, shall not be paid sooner or shall not be permitted to enforce the collection of their debts sooner against the consolidated city or incorporated town than the separate municipality prior to consolidation could have paid its own debts or could have been forced to do so.
(b) In any proceeding in court, by mandamus or otherwise, against a consolidated city or incorporated town to enforce the obligations created by either municipal corporation prior to consolidation, no greater part of the revenue of the consolidated city or incorporated town shall be subject to be applied by the court at the instance of the creditor to the payment of the obligations than could have been subjected against the revenues of the particular city or incorporated town creating the obligation prior to consolidation if the particular municipal corporation having so created the obligation had not been annexed.
