A PLAINTIFF MAY ATTACH A DEBT DUE THE DEFENDANT
ON A JUDGMENT OR DECREE OF A COURT OF LAW OR EQUITY,
INCLUDING THE DISTRICT COURT.

(C)   DEBTS DUE DEFENDANT ON JUDGMENT.

IF THE PROPERTY ATTACHED CONSISTS OF A DEBT DUE

PROCEEDS OF THE EXECUTION TO BE BROUGHT INTO COURT,
SUBJECT TO FURTHER ORDER OF THE COURT TO ABIDE THE
RESULT IN THE ATTACHMENT.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 9, §14, as amended by Ch. 252, Acts of
1973. The language of this section is
clarified to make explicit the authority to
issue an attachment on a judgment or
decree. The only other changes made are in
style.

SEC. 3-302. ATTACHMENT ON ORIGINAL PROCESS.

Art. 9, §1. The term "court of law" is
substituted for "court" to reflect the fact
that a court of equity does not have
jurisdiction over an attachment on original
process. The only other changes made are
in style.
