Article VIII. ABATEMENT OF PUBLIC NUISANCES/DRUG HOUSES/UNSAFE DWELLINGS |
§ 17-183. Loss of property exemptions; non-liability of officers.
Any person found guilty of maintaining a nuisance under the provisions of this section shall forfeit the benefit of all property exemptions, so far as satisfaction of the order or judgment of the court requires. The taking and disposing of any property of the defendant or defendants by virtue of such order or judgment by any officer directed to execute the same is not a trespass. Such officers shall not be liable either civilly or criminally therefore, if a proper return and accounting for such property is made to the court within ten (10) days after the order or judgment is executed.
