Per Curiam.

The judgment under appeal is affirmed. We find no merit in defendants’ contention that enforcement of a wage assignment under N. J. 8. A. 17:10-18, part of the Small Loan Law, violates the provisions of N. J. Const., Art. I, par. 1, and Art. IV, § VII, pars. 7, 8 and 9, and the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Consti tution. Nor is their argument that the county district court was without jurisdiction sound. This is not a case of a wage assignment relating to a future contract of employment, in which case the claim for relief would be purely equitable. 6 Am. Jur. 2d, Assignments, sec. 46, p. 229 et seq. (1963). The assignor was an employee of defendants at the time he executed the wage assignment and when it was served; and the fact that there subsequently was a brief break in his continuity of service did not defeat the effectiveness of the assignment.
