§ 5064. Award of levari facias when county line divides land.

The writ of levari facias awarded upon any judgment for the sale of any such tract, as mentioned in § 5062 of this title, shall be directed to the sheriff of the county wherein the judgment was given. The sheriff shall proceed in the same manner as is prescribed in other cases of the sale of lands upon such execution process, and may on the writ sell the tract of land in the whole, and altogether at one and the same time, and make return thereof to the court out of which the writ is issued. Upon confirmation of such sale by the court the sheriff shall make a deed to the purchaser conveying the whole as fully as if the same had been wholly situated in his or her bailiwick. Any deed so made shall be recorded in each of the counties in which the land is situated. Notice of any such sale shall be set up in at least 5 of the most public places in each of the hundreds in which the land or any part thereof is located.
