Description

We today inquire generally whether the Mississippi Rules of Civil Procedure, effective January 1, 1982, regulate the procedural aspects of the form of action known as garnishment. A garnishment action is in the nature of a civil action and is certainly subject to the rule-making power of this Court and the Mississippi Rules of Civil Procedure the same as any other civil action. By operation of Rule 69 (a), Miss.R.Civ.P., process supplementary to, and for the enforcement of, a judgment for the payment of money is expressly declared to be governed by heretofore existing statutes. Accordingly, by virtue of an express provision in the Rules the procedural rules whereby a party seeks to secure and enforce the remedy of garnishment are those provided by our garnishment statutes, Miss. Code Ann. 11-35-1 to -61 (1972), supplemented by so much of the Mississippi Rules of Civil Procedure as may be found not inconsistent with the procedures prescribed in such statutes.
