# O.C.G.A. § 9-13-129. Property subject to other executions; retention of sale proceeds to satisfy first execution; release of bond pro tanto.

When an execution has been levied on property and an affidavit of illegality has been filed to stay proceedings thereon, the property so levied on shall be subject to levy and sale under other executions. The officer making the first levy shall claim, receive, hold, and retain the amount of the proceeds of the sale as the court deems sufficient to pay the execution first levied, including interest up to the time of the court at which the illegality shall be determined. Any bond given by the defendant on filing the affidavit shall be released and discharged so far as relates to the property sold.
