Syllabus

<p>Attachment—Discharge of Writ as to Particular Property— Appeal.—An order discharging a writ of attachment in respect to particular property claimed not to be liable to seizure under the writ is, in effect, an order dissolving the attachment as to such property, and is appealable under section 963 of the Code of Civil Procedure.</p> <p>Id.—Exemption—Pranchise of Street Railway Company—Personal Property.—The exemption from seizure under attachment or execution of the franchise of a street railway company does not extend to or include its personal property, consisting of cars, trucks, electrical goods and supplies, fire-proof safes, etc., though necessary to be used in the business of operating its line. Such property does not emanate mediately or immediately from the state, and has no character of a personal trust; and it is subject to attachment or execution in like manner as other property not exempt by statute.</p>
