640. If there are several seizures by different unsecured creditors in the hands of the same garnishee, each seizing creditor has a preference over later seizing creditors according to the date of service of the writ of seizure by garnishment, unless the insolvency of the common debtor has been alleged; in the latter case the creditors are called in upon the first seizure in the manner provided in article 578.
