chapter where the process of attachment is authorized, and unless otherwise particularly provided
for in the article declaring the lien, before such attachment shall issue, the plaintiff,
his agent or attorney must make affidavit setting forth the amount of such claim, or if a
toll is claimed, the reasonable value thereof, that one of the enumerated causes for attachment
prescribed in the applicable article exists, that the attachment is not sued out for the purpose
of vexing or harassing the defendant, whether or not the debt or toll is due, and if not,
when the same will be due, that said debt or toll remains unpaid, and must describe therein,

Section 6-6-456 Judgment and proceedings if possession of effects subject to levy and sale
admitted. If the garnishee admits the possession of effects of the defendant, the subject
of levy and sale under legal process, judgment of condemnation must be entered that such effects
be delivered upon demand after the entry of judgment in favor of the plaintiff in the original
action, or so much thereof as may be necessary to satisfy the judgment, and the sheriff must
make sale thereof. If the garnishee fails to deliver such effects to the sheriff on demand,
he must make return thereof to the clerk, who must thereupon issue an execution against the
garnishee in favor of the plaintiff for the amount of the judgment and costs. If, however,
such failure is without fault or negligence on the part of the garnishee, he may tender to
the plaintiff, his agent, or attorney the value of such effects; and, if such tender is refused,
he may obtain relief by supersedeas. (Code 1852, §§2542-2544; Code...

Section 6-8-100 Answer of tender; judgment thereon. An answer of tender of money or of a thing
in action must be accompanied by a delivery of the money or such thing in action to the clerk
of the court. If the tender is of ponderous articles or other personal property, the answer
must aver a readiness to deliver it to the plaintiff. Judgment for the defendant upon the
answer vests the title to the thing tendered in the plaintiff, subject to any claim the defendant
may have for his trouble in keeping it. (Code 1852, §§2245, 2246; Code 1867, §§2648, 2649;

give security for the costs and reasonable attorney's fees incurred by the state or defendant

Section 6-6-141 Filing of complaint in actions begun by attachment - Issuance and service of
summons; default judgment. (a) Whenever a complaint is filed in an action begun by attachment,
whether at the time of suing out the attachment or subsequently thereto, a summons shall issue
upon the complaint in all respects, and with the same effect as if the action had been begun
by complaint. The issuance and service of such a summons shall in no manner affect the levy
or lien of the attachment or the enforcement thereof. (b) If the defendant appears and pleads,
the case proceeds as in actions commenced by complaint. If he fails to appear or, appearing,
fails to plead within the time required by law, the plaintiff may take judgment by default,
and the court may determine the amount of damages pursuant to the Alabama Rules of Civil Procedure,
if necessary. (Code 1852, §2572; Code 1867, §3000; Code 1876, §3325; Code 1886, §2996;
