Sale of Perishable Goods
If after the expiration of ten days from the levy of a writ of sequestration the defendant has failed
to replevy the same, if the plaintiff or defendant shall make affidavit in writing that the property
levied upon, or any portion thereof, is likely to be wasted or destroyed or greatly depreciated in
value by keeping, and if the officer having possession of such property shall certify to the truth of
such affidavit, it shall be the duty of the judge or justice of the peace to whose court the writ is
returnable, upon the presentation of such affidavit and certificate, either in term time or vacation,
to order the sale of said property or so much thereof as is likely to be so wasted, destroyed or
depreciated in value by keeping, but either party may replevy the property at any time before such
