1Opinion of the Court

STRUTZ, Judge.

Judgment in this action was entered by stipulation of the parties. Thereafter, the plaintiff garnisheed Grant County, as the employer of the defendant, in attempting to collect its judgment. In such garnishment proceeding the defendant contended that Grant County, being a political subdivision of the State of North Dakota, is not subject to garnishment and that property or funds in the hands of the garnishee County, belonging to the defendant, were not liable to garnishment.

The sole question on this appeal is whether a county is subject to garnishment as a garnishee.
