What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, a judge may order that personal property or real estate be

sold to satisfy a judgment against a person. Current law requires that public notice

of the sale be posted in three public places in the town or municipality where the sale

is to be held and, in the case of real estate, where the real estate is located, if the real

estate is not within the town or municipality where the sale is to be held.

This bill requires that public notice of the sale be posted in one public place in

the town or municipality where the sale is to be held and, in the case of real estate,

where the real estate is located, and on a Web site that is maintained by the county

where the sale is to be held and on a Web site that is maintained by the county where

the real estate is located, if the real estate is not within the town or municipality

where the sale is to be held. Under the bill, if the town or municipality where the sale

is to be held or where the real estate is located maintains a Web site, like town or

municipality may also post the notice on its Web site.
