§651-18 Discharge of writ when improperly issued. The defendant may at any time after the defendant has appeared in the action, either before or after the release of the attached property, or before any attachment has been actually levied, apply on motion, upon reasonable notice to the plaintiff, to the court in which the action is brought, or to the judge thereof, that the writ of attachment be discharged, on the ground that the same was improperly issued.
