Syllabus

<p>A party to an action does Hot after final judgment still remain in court' and subject without further personal service to whatsoever orders may be entered under the title of that cause.</p> <p>Interpleader proceedings brought by a garnishee are not essential concomitants of the original action in which the judgment was rendered on which the garnishment is based, but are collateral and require . personal service on the judgment debtor.</p> <p>In Pennsylvania, a judgment debtor is not a party to a garnishment' proceeding to condemn a claim due him from a third person, .nor is he bound by a judgment discharging the garnishee.</p> <p>Any personal judgment which a state court may render against one not voluntarily submitting to its jurisdiction, and who is not a citizen of the State, nor served with process within its border; no matter what the mode of service, is void because the court has no jurisdiction over his person.</p>
