Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. If the purchaser of real property sold
on execution, or the purchasers successor in interest, or a redemptioner is
evicted therefrom because of irregularities in the proceedings concerning the
sale or of the reversal or discharge of the judgment, the person may recover
the price paid, with interest, from the judgment creditor.
2. If the purchaser of property at a
sheriffs sale, or the purchasers successor in interest, fails to recover
possession in consequence of irregularity in the proceedings concerning the
sale, or because the property sold was not subject to execution and sale, the
court having jurisdiction thereof shall, on petition of such party in interest,
or the partys attorney, revive the original judgment for the amount paid by
the purchaser at the sale, with interest thereon from the time of payment at
the same rate that the original judgment bore, and when so revived, the
judgment has the same effect as an original judgment of the court of that date,
and bearing interest as aforesaid, and any other or after-acquired property,
rents, issues or profits of the debtor is liable to levy and sale, under
execution in satisfaction of the debt if:
(a) No property of the debtor bona fide sold upon
the recording of the petition is subject to the lien of the judgment; and
(b) The notice of the recording of the petition
is made by recording a notice thereof in the office of the recorder of the
county where the property is situated, and that the judgment must be revived in
the name of the original plaintiff or plaintiffs, for the use of the
petitioner, the party in interest.
