Syllabus

<p>Attachment. Garnishment. Qlaimant’s issue. Oocle 1892, § 2144. Justice of the peace. Appeal. Jurisdiction.</p> <p>The appeal of a claimant of property seized, or debt impounded, under attachment from the judgment of a justice of the peace, will not be dismissed because his claim was not made in the justice’s court “in writing under oath,” as provided by Code 1892, § 2144, since the form in which a claim is propounded is not jurisdictional; it may be waived, and is subject to amendment.</p>
