Sec. 12. (a) When an execution against the property of any person is delivered to an officer to be executed, the goods and chattels of the person within the jurisdiction of the officer is bound from the time of the delivery. (b) If there are several executions against the same defendant in the hands of different officers, that execution, without regard to the time of its delivery under which the first levy is made, has the preference, and all liens created by the prior delivery of any other execution are divested in favor of the execution first levied.
