8(1)Subject to sub-paragraph (2), the writ binds the property in the goods of the execution debtor from the time when the writ is received by the person who is under a duty to endorse it.
(2)The writ does not prejudice the title to any goods of the execution debtor acquired by a person in good faith and for valuable consideration.
(3)Sub-paragraph (2) does not apply if the person acquiring goods of the execution debtor had notice, at the time of the acquisition, that—

had been received by the person who was under a duty to endorse it but had not been executed.
(4)Sub-paragraph (2) does not apply if the person acquiring goods of the execution debtor had notice, at the time of the acquisition, that—

(b)the warrant issued on the application—
(i)remained unexecuted in the hands of the district judge of the court from which it was issued, or
(ii)had been sent for execution to, and received by, the district judge of another county court and remained unexecuted in the hands of that district judge.
(5)In sub-paragraph (1) “property” means the general property in goods (and not merely a special property).
(6)For the purposes of sub-paragraph (2) a thing shall be treated as done in good faith if it is in fact done honestly (whether it is done negligently or not).
(7)Any reference in this paragraph to the goods of the execution debtor includes anything else of his that may lawfully be seized in execution.
9(1)This paragraph applies where an enforcement officer or other person who is under a duty to execute the writ is executing it.

(a)such tools, books, vehicles and other items of equipment as are necessary to the execution debtor for use personally by him in his employment, business or vocation;
(b)such clothing, bedding, furniture, household equipment and provisions as are necessary for satisfying the basic domestic needs of the execution debtor and his family.

(c)the goods are to be sold for a sum which, including legal incidental expenses, exceeds £20.
(2)The sale must be—
(a)made by public auction, and not by bill of sale or private contract, unless the court otherwise orders, and
(b)publicly advertised on, and during the three days preceding, the day of sale.
(3)If the person who seized the goods has notice of another execution or other executions, the court must not consider an application for leave to sell privately until the notice prescribed by Civil Procedure Rules has been given to the other execution creditor or creditors.
(4)An execution creditor given notice under sub-paragraph (3) is entitled—
(a)to appear before the court, and
(b)to be heard on the application for the order.
11(1)This paragraph applies if—
(a)a writ of execution has been issued from the High Court,
(b)goods in the possession of an execution debtor are seized by an enforcement officer or other person under a duty to execute the writ, and
(c)the goods are sold by that officer without any claims having been made to them.
(2)If this paragraph applies—
(a)the purchaser of the goods acquires a good title to them, and
(b)no person is entitled to recover against the officer or anyone acting under his authority—
(i)for any sale of the goods, or
(ii)for paying over the proceeds prior to the receipt of a claim to the goods,
unless it is proved that the person from whom recovery is sought had notice, or might by making reasonable enquiry have ascertained, that the goods were not the property of the execution debtor.
(3)Nothing in this paragraph affects the right of a lawful claimant to any remedy to which he is entitled against any person other than the enforcement officer or other officer charged with the execution of the writ.
(4)“Lawful claimant” means a person who proves that at the time of sale he had a title to any goods seized and sold.
