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...

under the provisions of this division, on the same property, may join in the same action for
the enforcement of their respective liens; and when there is such joinder, the court or jury
trying the action must ascertain the amount due to each of the plaintiffs secured by the lien,
and judgment must be rendered accordingly; but the failure of one or more of the plaintiffs

the sale of the property levied on, if not sufficient to satisfy the demands of all the plaintiffs,
shall be distributed, after payment of the costs, pro rata among them. (b) When persons having
such liens on the same property refuse, after notice in writing, to join in such action, the
persons giving the notice may proceed without them on making affidavit of the fact of such
notice and refusal; and notice of the levy of the attachment...
