Lincoln National Bank v. Murphy
Opinion of the Court
This is an appeal by plaintiff from an order discharging the garnishees.
It appeared from the disclosures of the garnishees that the defendant had made an application to them through the State Bank of
It is sought to sustain the order on the ground that the disclosure did not admit an indebtedness to defendant and did not entitle plaintiff to a judgment against the garnishees. If no further proceedings had been taken and plaintiff had submitted the matter to the court to determine on the disclosure, perhaps the order might be sustained. But this was not the situation. The bank appeared and asserted its claim to the proceeds of the loan in the manner authorized by the statute, Gr. S. 1913, § 7869, and plaintiff, by its answer, put in issue the validity of the transfer of the funds to the bank. The motion was made by the defendant only. Neither plaintiff nor the bank rested its claim to the fund on the disclosure made by the garnishees, but each took proper steps to put itself in position toi establish its claim by evidence outside the disclosure. The complaint in intervention and the answer thereto raised substantial issues which the parties were entitled to have tried and determined in the usual way, and the court erred in disposing of the matter on the disclosure without a trial. Smith v. Barclay, 54 Minn. 47, 55 N. W. 827; Leslie v. God-
Order reversed.
