85.18. Multiple Attachments - Priorities - How and Where Resolved

When the same property is attached in several actions by different claimants, the court shall determine the priority, validity, good faith, and force and effect of the different attachments, and may dissolve any attachment, wholly or partially, or make such other order as may be required. If the writs have issued from different courts, all matters relating to the attachments shall be determined by the court out of which the first writ of attachment was issued. Issues other than matters relating to the attachments shall remain in the court in which each case is pending.
