8013 - Expenses of sheriffs.

 
    §  8013.  Expenses  of sheriffs. (a) Publication of notice of sale.  A
  sheriff, where real property is to be sold by virtue of an execution  or
  in  pursuance  of  a  direction  contained in a judgment, is entitled to
  reimbursement for printer's fees, paid by him for the publication  of  a
  notice  of the sale. Where the notice is published more than four times,
  or the sale is postponed, the expense of continuing the publication,  or
  of  publishing  the  notice of postponement, shall be paid by the person
  requesting it. Where two or more executions against the property of  one
  judgment  debtor  are  in  the hands of the sheriff at the time when the
  proceeds are distributed, the sheriff is entitled to  reimbursement  for
  printer's  fees  upon  only the execution issued upon the judgment first
  docketed in the county.
    (b) Appraisal of attached property. A sheriff, where  an  estimate  of
  the value of property levied upon by virtue of an order of attachment is
  made,  shall  be  entitled  to  reimbursement  for  such compensation to
  appraisers actually employed thereupon as the court  which  granted  the
  order of attachment may allow.
    (c)  Other  expenses.  A  sheriff  is entitled to reimbursement of all
  expenses necessarily incurred in the execution of any mandate and in the
  protection, presentation, transportation or sale of property.
    (d) Payment in advance. A sheriff, whenever he deems it necessary, may
  require payment to him in advance to cover any or all expenses for which
  he is entitled to reimbursement; advance  payments  made  in  connection
  with  a  mandate  or direction affecting property shall be repaid by the
  sheriff out of the proceeds of the sale of the property, if any.
