Decided 1868-06-15

The court

¶1reversed the order appealed from, and discharged the attachment on defendant paying the amount of the judgment within five days—saying, that “judgment,” as defined in the sections of the Code relating to provisional remedies, meant “ a final determination of the rights of the parties to the action,” and that the pendency of the appeal from the judgment did not affect the rights of the defendant to have the attachment discharged. No written opinion was given.
