The mortgagor may avail himself of any defense he may have to the foreclosure in the same manner and upon the same conditions as allowed by law in case of foreclosure of chattel mortgages in the superior courts. Whenever any such defense is filed by the mortgagor, the magistrate issuing the execution shall have the power and jurisdiction to hear and determine the issues made thereon as in other cases at law.
