If it appears that a person or corporation, alleged to have
property of the judgment debtor, or to be indebted to him, claims
an interest in the property adverse to him, or denies the debt, the
judgment creditor may maintain an action against such person or
corporation for the recovery of such interest or debt, and the
judge or referee may, by order, forbid a transfer or other
disposition of such interest or debt, until an action can be
commenced and prosecuted to judgment. Such order may be
modified or vacated by the judge or referee granting the same, or
the court in which the action is brought, at any time, upon such
terms as may be just.
