600.6009 Execution; officer's security; recovery of expense.
Sec. 6009.
Whenever there is any reasonable doubt as to the ownership by a judgment debtor of any personal property, or as to their liability to be taken upon an execution, the officer holding such execution may require of the judgment creditor sufficient security to indemnify him for taking such personal property thereon; and if such security be refused, such officer shall not be liable for omitting to take such personal property. Such judgment creditor upon demand of the officer holding such execution, upon depositing sufficient security to indemnify the officer taking such personal property, shall recover of the defendant, together with the costs of the execution levy, the reasonable cost of indemnity so deposited.
