1Opinion of the Court
NEBEKER, Associate Judge:
These consolidated appeals are from two judgments entered against appellant-garnishee after a hearing on appellee’s motion for judgment of recovery. Appellant, a nonresident corporation, was served with writs of attachment pursuant to D.C. Code 1967, § 29-933i(c). Appellant filed no answer and accordingly appellee requested judgment of recovery as provided in D.C. Code 1967, § 16-556(b). Appellant then filed an opposition to the motion contending that it was not doing business in the District of Columbia and hence not subject to the trial court’s jurisdiction.…
