This decision was rendered by Justice Seabury in a suit against a. draughts- man In the Bureau of Sewers in the Borough of the Bronx, After judgement was obtained notice was served upon Comptroller Grout of a levy of an attachment of 19 per oent. upon the excess of the draughtsman's salary above $20 a week. The act of 198 provided that where a man (s tn receipt of a salary In excess of $9 a week, 10 per cent. of the excess could be taken by the Sheriff to be ap- piled in the satisfaction of a judgment against the employee.
