Attachment of the debtor's property in the hands of a third party. Its condition: the attachment applicant's right must be established by an apparent ground indicating its existence. Assessment of the existence of the right in this sense lies independently with the trial court, provided that it bases its decision on grounds that justify it.

الحجز على ما للمدين تحت يد الغير. شرطه: أن يكون حق طالب الحجز ثابتاً بسبب ظاهر يدل على وجوده. تقدير وجود الحق بهذا المعنى تستقل به محكمة الموضوع متى أقامت قضاءها على ما يبرره.
