In this case a .garnishment was sued out on a judgment, as provided in thе Civil Code, §4705. By the last clause of § 4709, procéedings subsequent to the affidavit and summons “ shall be the same as prescribed in cаses of attachment.” By the Civil Code, § 4551, the answer in all cases is in time if made on the first day of the second term of the superior court after service of the summons. Sanders v. Miller, 60 Ga. 554. Jarrell v. Guann, 105 Ga. 141; Atlanta Journal v. Brunswick Pub. Co., 111 Ga. 722. Under these decisions and sections of the'code, the garnishee, therеfore, had until the first day of the February term, 1903, in which to answer, and thе default judgment entered during the November term, 1902, was void (Liverpool Co. v. Sav. Grocery Co., 97 Ga. 747), unless the аct establishing the city court of Moultrie has modified the general law contained in the code. Section 35 of that аct (Acts of 1901, p. 143) provides for an appearanсe and a trial term, and declares that “ in cases in which there is no plea or defense filed on the call of the appearance docket . . a judgment may be rеndered by the court . . at said appearance term.” Section 15 provides that the laws governing pleading and рractice in the superior court shall be appliсable to said court, unless otherwise provided in the aсt; section 18, that all laws upon the subject of attachmеnts and garnishments in the superior court shall apply to said сity court so far as the nature of said city court will admit. By section 19 it is further enacted, “that the garnishment proceeding in thе city court shall be conformable to the laws on the subjеct applicable in the superior court.” It is claimed that under this statute a failure of the garnishee to answer on or before the call of the appearanсe docket at the first term after service of the summons authorizes a judgment against him. There is language in the act which might admit of such a construction. But considering the nature of the garnishment proceeding, and the relation of the garnisheе to the case, and giving full effect to the provision of section 19, which expressly declares that the “garnishment prо-, ceeding in the city court shall be conformable to thе laws on the subject applicable in the superior court,” it appears that whatever might be the rule as to оther classes of cases, or in other city courts (Dodson v. Harris, 114 Ga. 968; Mathews v. Bishop, 106
