These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Since this lien arose more than four months prior to the filing of the petition in bankruptcy it was not affected by the bankruptcy proceedings and the claimant had the right to perfect the lien by prosecuting the garnishment proceedings to judgment in the state court. A judgment perfecting the lien may be rendered within the four months’ period or even after the filing of the petition in bankruptcy proceedings.” (Italics mine.)”
