Section 6-6-452 Payment of defendant's money into court if garnishee admits possession thereof.
If the garnishee admits the possession of money belonging to the defendant, he must pay the
same or so much thereof as may be necessary to satisfy the plaintiff's demand and costs into
court to await the order of the court; and, if he fails to make such payment, he is liable
as if he had admitted an indebtedness for the amount of such money. (Code 1886, §2979; Code
1896, §2194; Code 1907, §4323; Code 1923, §8074; Code 1940, T. 7, §1018.)...

Section 6-6-453 Payment of indebtedness or liability to clerk; effect thereof; ordering of
deposit by court. (a) When the garnishee admits indebtedness or liability to the defendant
and the defendant has not executed bond for the dissolution of the garnishment, as provided
in Division 4 of this article, the garnishee may, by order of the court first had and obtained,
pay the amount of such indebtedness or liability or so much thereof as the court may direct
into the hands of the clerk, to be held subject to the judgment in the case. Such payment
has the effect to discharge the garnishee from liability for the amount so paid and interest
subsequently accruing thereon, but does not prevent the interposition and trial of collateral
issues as provided in Division 6 of this article. (b) The court may, in its discretion, direct
the clerk to deposit, pending the action, the money at interest in a bank authorized to receive
deposits of public funds. (Code 1896, §§2188, 2189; Code 1907,...

Section 6-6-455 Proceedings when garnishee liable for delivery of personal property. If the
garnishee is liable for the delivery of personal property or for the payment of money which
may be discharged by the delivery of personal property, the value of the property must be
ascertained and a judgment entered against the garnishee that if he does not, by a day to
be fixed by the court which must be a day after the maturity of such contract, deliver such
property to the sheriff or other lawful officer, he must pay the value thereof or the sum
of money which was payable therein. Upon the return of the sheriff or such other officer that
such property was not delivered or the value thereof or such sum of money was not paid to
him as required by the judgment, execution must be issued for the ascertained value of such
property or for the sum of money payable therein, if the same is less than the amount of the
judgment against the defendant in the original action, or, if more or equal thereto,...

and bond, as the case may be, the officer filing the same must issue process of garnishment
and a copy thereof for each garnishee, to be served by the proper officer, requiring the garnishee
to appear within 30 days and file an answer, upon oath, whether, at the time of the service
of the garnishment, at the time of making his answer or at any time intervening between the
time of serving the garnishment and making the answer he was indebted to the defendant and
whether he will not be indebted in future to him by a contract then existing, whether by a
contract then existing he is liable to him for the delivery of personal property or for the
payment of money which may be discharged by the delivery of personal property or which is
payable in personal property and whether he has not in his possession or under his control

mortgagors or vendees, etc. (a) If the action is by a mortgagee or his assignee against a
mortgagor, or one holding under him, or by a vendor who has made a conditional sale reserving
the title until the entire purchase money shall be paid, or his assignee, against his vendee
or one holding under him, the defendant may, upon suggestion, require that the jury ascertain
the amount of the mortgage debt or the unpaid balance of the purchase price of the article
sold; and if the debt due is ascertained to be less than the value of the property sued for
as assessed by the jury, judgment must be entered for the property sued for or if that is
not to be had, then for the amount of the debt as ascertained by the jury. The court must
also make an order that, if the debt so ascertained, interest and costs, shall be paid within
30 days, no execution or other process shall issue on the judgment; and on...

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...
