Where process in any replevin action is by way of a summons in replevin, said cause shall be triable on its merits upon at least five (5) days process upon the defendant, and said cause shall be triable in termtime or in vacation and at such place as the court may direct. In the event it shall appear at the return day that there is secondary service of process, or less than five (5) days process upon the defendant, the court may enter an order resetting said matter for trial on a future date, so as to insure that said cause will not be tried on its merits except upon a resetting on secondary process or except upon at least five (5) days process upon the defendant. In the event of such order resetting said cause for such later date, it shall not be necessary that further process be served upon the defendant.
