BARFIELD, J.

Appellant, Craig Sims, sought to enforce a judgment against Wayne and Wanda Meredith by serving two writs of garnishment on M. Pete McNabb, who Sims believed owed money to the Merediths. The writs were served by certified process servers. McNabb moved to quash service of process on the grounds that such process must be served by a sheriff's deputy. The trial judge agreed and quashed service of both writs. We reverse.
