Attachment and Execution upon Real Estate in the Light of Legal Provisions (Al-Hajz al-Tanfidhi ala al-Aqar fi Daw' Ahkam al-Qanun)

Abstract

The executive seizure of the real estate is a means that enables the creditor to place the debtor's property in the hands of the judiciary in preparation for selling it through public auction, under the supervision of the judicial authority to require the seizure's right from its price.

The Libyan legislator has organized the executive seizure of real estate in Articles 525 to 619 of the Civil and Commercial Procedure Law, and given the economic status of the property and the legal, cultural and social value it represents, the legislator has surrounded it with a set of legal procedures that distinguish the length and complexity of the dates.
