Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
If
the defendant recovers judgment against the plaintiff, or if the claim for
relief upon which the attachment is based is dismissed, then any undertaking
received in the action, all the proceeds of sales and money collected by the
sheriff, and all the property attached remaining in the sheriffs hands, shall
be delivered to the defendant or the defendants agent, and the order of
attachment shall be discharged and the property released therefrom; but if an
appeal is taken from an order dissolving or discharging the attachment, from a
final judgment in favor of the defendant or from an order dismissing the claim
for relief upon which the attachment is based, the court may, upon such terms
as are just, stay or enjoin the release by the sheriff and the dissolution of
the writ pending the appeal.
