BOULDIN, Justice.

This proceeding originated in the issuance of a writ of garnishment to collect a decree for separate maintenance. This decree had been rendered in favor of the wife, this appellant, on October 16, 1933, more than a year before suing out the writ of garnishment.

The husband, appellee here, filed a motion to quash the writ of garnishment. Demurrer to this motion being overruled, an answer was filed thereto. Later, appellant filed a motion requesting “that this court determine the exact amount due to complainant by respondent under said decree.”
