§ 12-901. Execution for delivery of property.

If the execution be for the delivery of the possession of real or personal property, it shall require the officer to deliver the same, particularly describing the property, to the party entitled thereto, and may, at the same time, require the officer to satisfy any costs or damages, recovered in the same judgment, out of the goods and chattels of the party against whom it was rendered; and, for the want of such goods and chattels, then out of the lands and tenements; and in this respect it shall be deemed an execution against the property.
