Disclaimer by garnishee - Interpleading interested party
Official statutory text
When the answer of the garnishee shall disclose that any other
person than the defendant claims the indebtedness or property in his
hands, and the name and residence of such claimant, the court may,
on motion, order that such claimant be interpleaded, as a defendant
to the garnishee action; and that notice thereof, setting forth the
facts, with a copy of such order, in such form as the court shall
direct, be served upon him; and that after such service shall have
been made, the garnishee may pay or deliver to the officer or the
clerk such indebtedness or property, and have a receipt therefor,
which shall be a complete discharge from all liability to any party
for the amount paid or property so delivered. Such notice shall be
served in the manner required for service of a summons in a civil
action, and may be made without the state, or by publication
thereof, if the order shall so direct. Upon such service being
made, such claimant shall be deemed a defendant to the garnishee
action and within ten (10) days shall answer, setting forth his
claim or any defense which the garnishee might have made. In case
of default, judgment may be rendered, which shall conclude any claim
upon the part of such defendant.
