delivered the opinion of the court.
The judgment in this case cannot be permitted to stand,
In the Home Mut. Ins. Co. v. Gamble, (14 Mo. 407,) this court held that a judgment debtor might be summoned as a garnishee when there was a stay of execution and the garnishment was served during the stay. There was no defence in the defendant’s answer, and judgment should have been rendered upon it; but, inasmuch as the garnishee is entitled to some allowance for answering, the case will be sent back. to the Circuit Court for adjustment.
Judgment reversed and cause remanded.
