Lamar v. Chisholm

77 Ga. 306
Supreme Court of Georgia·Decided November 9, 1886·Published·Cited by 6 cases

Opinion

Blandford, Justice.

The question here is, are the monthly wages of a clerk and bookkeeper subject to garnishment?

This is not an open question in this court. In the case of Smith vs. Johnston, 71 Ga. 748, this court held that the wages of a' clerk for a line of railroad, known as the Green Line, were not subject to garnishment. This decision was made on the authority of the cases reported in 46 Ga. 466; 54 Id. 108; 25 Id. 571.

Judgment affirmed.
