Statutory text

(1) Upon the application of the decree-holder the Court which passed the decree may,

(2) The Court to which a precept is sent shall proceed to attach the property in the manner prescribed
in regard to the attachment of property in execution of a decree:
Provided  that  no  attachment  under  a  precept  shall  continue  for  more  than  two  months  unless  the
period  of  attachment  is  extended  by  an  order  of  the  Court  which  passed  the  decree  or  unless  before  the
determination  of  such  attachment  the  decree  has  been  transferred  to  the  Court  by  which  the  attachment has been made and the decree-holder has applied for an order for the sale of such property.
