Title 12 : Court Procedure
Chapter 111 : Levy of Execution
Subchapter 003 : REAL ESTATE; LEVY, SALE, AND REDEMPTION
(Cite as: 12 V.S.A. § 2796)-
§ 2796. Redemption—Bond; writ of possession; accounting by purchaser for rents and profits
When real estate is sold on execution, the debtor or person claiming under him or her may redeem the same at any time within six months from the date of such sale. He or she shall file a bond within 14 days after such sale with the clerk of the court or magistrate who issued such execution, to the purchaser, in a penal sum that the clerk or magistrate shall order, conditioned in case he or she does not redeem the property to pay the purchaser the fair rents and profits of such premises and commit no waste on the same, which bond shall be approved by the clerk or magistrate. When the debtor fails to file the bond as provided for in this section, the purchaser may have his or her writ of possession from the clerk or magistrate, and may enter and take possession and manage such real estate in a good husbandlike manner. If the defendant in such action shall redeem the same, the purchaser shall account for the fair value of the rents and profits thereof, until the same shall be redeemed. (Amended 2017, No. 11, § 17.)
