This is a proceeding by motion, pursuant to section 35, chapter 106, serial section 4489, Code 1913, to quash a bond executed by plaintiff to procure his discharge from arrest made upon an order issued by the clerk of the circuit court of Taylor county under section 31 of said chapter, in an action therein pending against him. The motion to quash is made on the ground that the plaintiff in that action, who is the defendant in this, had not filed the affidavit and bond required by sections 30 and 31 of said chapter. The court dismissed plaintiff’s motion on the apparent ground that judgment had been recovered against him in the action in which the bond had been given and, therefore, his motion to quash it came too late. The judgment is quite distinct from the order of arrest and the bond for release, notwithstanding the purpose of the arrest was to secure the payment of the judgment, and the validity of the bond depends not alone upon the recovery of a judgment, but also upon the lawfulness of the arrest. Hence, by suffering a judgment against him the debtor did not waive his right to contest the validity of the bond. If affidavit and bond were not filed by the creditor, as required by sections 30 and 31, chapter 106, serial sections 4484 and 4485, Code 1913, there was want of jurisdiction to issue the order of arrest and the arrest was unlawful; and, if the bond to secure the debtor’s release was executed under duress of unlawful arrest, he had a right to move to quash it even after judgment had been recovered against him. The reasons given in the opinion handed down at the present term in the case of State ex rel. v. Keller et al., for reversing the judgment in that case, apply as well in this case, so far as they relate to matters affecting the validity of the bond sought to be quashed by this proceeding.

*223The judgment overruling plaintiff’s motion and dismissing the proceeding is reversed, and the ease is remanded for further proceedings.

Reversed and Remanded.
