    Garnishment. Parties. Practice. New trial. Before Judge Milner. "Whitfield superior court. April term, 1891.
   Judgment reversed.

Foster et al. obtained a judgment against J. T. Haynes. Hpon this judgment they sued out process of garnishment against Harlan, who answered denying any indebtedness to said Haynes individually, but admitting that he owed him $1,087 for land he had bought from Haynes as executor of his father, Smith Haynes. To this answer the plaintiffs filed a implication, that while the money which the garnishee owed was due to Haynes as executor of his father, he was one of the heirs and there was more due and coming to him from the fund [than enough] to pay off" plaintiffs’ debt. Upon the issue thus made the jury found in favor of plaintiffs. The garnishee-refused to make a motion for new trial, but Haynes, the defendant, did so, and a new trial was granted. The plaintiffs excepted upon the grounds that when the garnishee, against whom the verdiet was rendered and the judgment signed, refused to make a motion for new trial, no other person could do so; and that the verdiet and judgment could not affect injuriously the movant.
