Syllabus

<p>Sheriffs and Constables — Attachment — Dissolution — Surrender of Property — Subsequent Appeal — Effect. Upon dissolution of an attachment, the sheriff is bound to return the property to the defendant, upon demand, immediately without waiting for an appeal to be taken and perfected, and is not liable to the plaintiff if, upon appeal subsequently taken, with supersedeas, the order dissolving the attachment is reversed.</p> <p>Same. The fact that the sheriff had been given an indemnity bond by the plaintiff does not put the sheriff under any obligation to hold the attached property after dissolution of the attachment.</p>
