                                  CHAPTER 1
                                  EXECUTIONS
    11-102.  FORM OF WRIT. The writ of execution must be issued in the name of
the people, sealed with the seal of the court, and subscribed by the clerk,
and be directed to the sheriff, and it must intelligently refer to the
judgment, stating the court, the county where the judgment roll is filed, and
if it be for money, the amount thereof, and the amount actually due thereon,
and if made payable in a specified kind of money, or currency, as provided in
section 10-1104, the execution must also state the kind of money or currency
in which the judgment is payable, and must require the sheriff substantially
as follows:
    1.  If it be against the property of the judgment debtor, it must require
the sheriff to satisfy the judgment, with interest, out of the personal
property of such debtor, and if sufficient personal property can not be found,
then out of his real property; or if the judgment be a lien upon real
property, then out of the real property belonging to him on the day when the
judgment was docketed, or at any time thereafter; or if the execution be
issued to a county other than the one in which the judgment was recovered, on
the day when the transcript of the docket was filed in the office of the
recorder of such county, stating such day, or any time thereafter.
    2.  If it be against real or personal property in the hands of the
personal representatives, heirs, devisees, legatees, tenants, or trustees, it
must require the sheriff to satisfy the judgment, with interest, out of such
property.
    3.  If it be against the person of the judgment debtor, it must require
the sheriff to arrest such debtor and commit him to the jail of the county
until he pay the judgment, with interest, or be discharged according to law.
    4.  If it be issued on a judgment made payable in a specified kind of
money or currency, as provided in section 10-1104, it must also require the
sheriff to satisfy the same in the kind of money or currency in which the
judgment is made payable, and the sheriff must refuse payment in any other
kind of money or currency; and in case of levy and sale of property of the
judgment debtor, he must refuse payment from any purchaser at such sale in any
other kind of money or currency than that specified in the execution. The
sheriff collecting money or currency in the manner required by this chapter,
must pay to the plaintiff or party entitled to recover the same, the same kind
of money or currency received by him, and in case of neglect or refusal so to
do, he shall be liable on his official bond to the judgment creditor in three
times the amount of the money so collected.
    5.  If it be for the delivery of the possession of real or personal
property, it must require the sheriff to deliver the possession of the same,
describing it, to the party entitled thereto, and may at the same time require
the sheriff to satisfy any costs, damages, rents or profits recovered by the
same judgment, out of the personal property of the person against whom it was
rendered, and the value of the property for which the judgment was rendered,
to be specified therein, if a delivery thereof can not be had; and if
sufficient personal property can not be found, then out of the real property,
as provided in the first subdivision of this section.
