Rule 152 - Attachment of property in custody of courts or Public Officer.
Section 152: Attachment of Property in Custody of Courts or Public Officers
Section 152 explains the procedure for attaching property that is currently held by a court or a public officer. If a property needs to be attached for the recovery of a debt or obligation, and it is under the custody of a court or a public official, the responsible officer must send an attachment order to that court or officer. This order requests that the property, along with any interest or dividends it may generate, be retained until the outstanding amount is fully recovered. This ensures that the property remains secure and is not disposed of or altered until the financial obligation is settled. This process helps in safeguarding the interests of the party seeking recovery by ensuring that the property remains available as a means to satisfy the debt.
