PER CURIAM.

¶1 A motion to dismiss this action was filed May 3, 1932, and to this a response was filed May 24, 1932.

¶2 It is admitted by all parties that prior to final judgment and after the case on appeal from the justice court was filed in the superior court of Seminole county, Okla., Virgil D. Lawmaster attempted to appeal to this court by petition in error and case-made from an order sustaining the garnishment proceedings.

"An order of the district court overruling a motion to discharge an attachment is not reviewable in the Supreme Court until a final judgment has been rendered in the case."

"A garnishment proceeding under the statutes of Oklahoma is so effectually an attachment that it is included within the term attachment."
