Sale of Perishable Property

activein force · 2026-07-01 – presentact-effective-date

Whenever personal property which has been levied on under a distress warrant shall not have been

claimed or replevied, the judge, or justice of the peace, to whose court such writ is made returnable

may, either in term time or in vacation, order the same to be sold, when it shall be made to appear

that such property is in danger of serious and immediate waste or decay, or that the keeping of the

same until the trial will necessarily be attended with such expense or deterioration in value as

greatly to lessen the amount likely to be realized therefrom.
