§ 1430. The expression, "real property ", as used in this and the succeeding article, includes leasehold property, where the lessee or his assignee is possessed, at the time of the sale, of at least five years unexpired term of the lease, and also of the building or buildings, if any, erected thereupon.

4 Edm. 624 (Laws of 1837, ch. 462) § 1, amended by inserting the words

"at the time of the sale," and substituting "the" in the place of “any."

§ 1431. Real property, held by one person, in trust or for the use of another, is liable to levy and sale by virtue of an exccution,

when liable issued upon a judgment recovered against the person, to whose use it is so held, in a case where it is prescribed by law, that, by reason of the invalidity of the trust, an estate vests in the beneficiary; but special provision is not otherwise made by law, for the mode of subjecting it to his debts.

§ 1433. Where an execution against property, is issued upon a Direction judgment, specified in the last section, to the county where the mort- indorsed gaged property is situated, the attorney, or other person who sub- cution. scribes it, must indorse thereupon a direction to the sheriff, not to levy it upon the mortgaged property, or any part thereof. The direction must briefly describe the mortgaged property, and refer to the book and page, where the mortgage is recorded. If the execution is not collected out of the other property of the judgment debtor, the sheriff must return it wholly or partly unsatisfied, as the case requires.

2 R. S. 382, §§ 32 and 33, amended so as to limit the provision to an exe

cution issued to the county where the
property is situated.

of sale

§ 1434. The sheriff who sells real property, by virtue of an Notice execution, must previously give public notice of the time and place of real of the sale, as follows:

1. A written or printed notice thereof must be conspicuously fastened up, at least forty-two days before the sale, in three public places, in the town or city where the sale is to take place, and also in three public places, in the town or city where the property is situated, if the sale is to take place in another town or city.

2. A copy of the notice must be published, at least once in each of the six weeks, immediately preceding the sale, in a newspaper published in the county, if there is one; or, if there is none, in the newspaper printed at Albany, in which legal notices are required to be published.

2 R. S. 382, § 34, amended by omitting the provision concerning publication in a "State paper," except that the notice shall be published in the newspaper at Albany, etc., in case there is no newspaper published in the county where the land is situate. 4 Wait's Pr. 75.

The publication in a proper news

paper of a notice of sale of real estate,
once in each week for six successive
weeks before the sale, is sufficient, al-
though the first publication is less
than forty-two days prior to the sale.

368; S. C., 1 Lans. 405. The notice
must be posted forty-two days prior
to the sale. Ib.

§ 1435. In each notice, specified in the last section, the real Property, property to be sold must be described with common certainty, by described setting forth the name of the township or tract, and the number of Part may the lot, if there is any, or by some other appropriate description. The validity of a sale is not affected by the fact, that the property sold is part only of the property advertised to be sold.

2 R. S. 382, § 35, amended by adding the last sentence; 4 Wait's Pr. 76.

two sections, or otherwise than as prescribed in this chapter, forfeits one thousand dollars to the party injured, in addition to the damages which the latter sustains thereby.

2 R. S. 383, § 37; 4 Wait's Pr. 77.

§ 1437. Where real property, offered for sale by virtue of an execution, consists of two or more known lots, tracts, or parcels, each lot, tract, or parcel must be separately exposed for sale. If a person who is the owner of, or is entitled by law to redeem, a distinct parcel of the property, of any other description, requires that parcel to be exposed for sale separately, the sheriff must expose it accordingly. No more real property shall be exposed for sale, than it appears to be necessary to sell, in order to satisfy the execution.

2 R. S. 383, § 38, amended by substituting the words " distinct parcel" for the phrase, “any portion of such estate, or of such lots, tracts or parcels, or either of them." 4 Wait's Pr.

76.

The failure of the sheriff to obey the statute in relation to the sale in parcels does not render the sale void, but it is merely voidable at the instance of the aggrieved party. O'Donnell v. Lindsay, 7 J. & Sp. 523.

§ 1438. The sheriff, who sells real property, by virtue of an execution, must make out, subscribe, and acknowledge before an officer authorized to take the acknowledgment of a deed, duplicate certificates of the sale, containing:

1. The name of each purchaser, and the time when the sale was made.

2. A particular description of the property sold.

3. The price bid for each distinct parcel separately sold.
4. The whole consideration money paid.

2 R. S. 383, 384, § 42, amended by
requiring the certificate to be acknowl-
edged, by adding subd. 1 of this sec-
tion, and by omitting subd. 4 of the
original. 4 Wait's Pr. 82-84.

A deed issued to an assignee of the certificate of sale, or to one who has

acquired the rights of an assignee as a creditor under the statute, is valid although the assignments have not been proved, acknowledged or filed. Wood v. Morehouse, 45 N. Y. (6 Hand) 368; affirming S. C., 1 Lans. 405.

§ 1439. The sheriff must, within ten days after the sale, file one of the duplicate certificates, in the office of the clerk of the county, and deliver another to the purchaser. If there are two or more purchasers, a certificate must be delivered to each. The clerk must immediately record the certificate in a book, kept by him for that purpose, and must index the record, to the name of the judg ment debtor. His fees for so doing must be paid by the sheriff, as part of the expenses of the sale.

2 R. S. 384, § 43, and 4 Edm. 634 (Laws of 1857, ch. 60), § 1, consolidated. The words "judgment debtor" have been substituted in place of "the

defendant or defendants in the judgment," and the words "or register" have been omitted. 4 Wait's Pr. 79, 82, 83.

§ 1440. The right and title of the judgment debtor, or of person holding under him, or deriving title through him, to real erty not property, sold by virtue of an execution, is not divested by the sale, before until the expiration of the period, within which it can be redeemed, as prescribed in this article, and the execution of the sheriff's deed. But if the property is not redeemed, and a deed is executed in pursuance of the sale, the grantee in the deed is deemed to have been vested with the legal estate, from the time of the sale, for the purpose of maintaining an action for an injury to the property.

2 R. S. 387, 388, § 61, amended by substituting the words "the period within which it can be redeemed, as prescribed in this article, and the execution of the officer's deed," in the place of "fifteen months from the time of such sale." 4 Wait's Pr. 94-97.

A redemption made before the last day of the fifteen months is valid, though not made in the county ir which the sale took place. Rice v. Davis, 7 Lans. 393.

§ 1441. The person entitled to the possession of real property, Rights of sold by virtue of an execution, as prescribed in the last section, may, of the during the period therein specified, use and enjoy the same as fol- during inlows, without being chargeable with committing waste:

1. He may use and enjoy it in like manner, and for the like purposes, as it was used and enjoyed before the sale, doing no permanent injury to the freehold.

2. He may make necessary repairs to a building, or other erection thereupon. But this subdivision does not permit an alteration in the form or structure of the building, or other erection.

3. He may use and improve the land, in the ordinary course of husbandry; but he is not entitled to a crop, growing thereon, at the expiration of the period of redemption.

4. He may apply any wood or timber on the land to the necessary reparation of a fence, building, or other erection, which was thereupon at the time of the sale.

5. If he actually occupies the land sold, he may take necessary fire-wood therefrom for use in his household.
