108. [Am'd, 1895.] Trial of claim of title by third person, to property seized by sheriff.

Where it is specially prescribed by law, that a sheriff must, or may, in his discretion, impanel a jury to try the validity of a claim of title to or of the right of possession of goods or effects seized by him by virtue of a mandate in an action, interposed by a person not a party to the action, the trial must be conducted in the following manner, except as otherwise specially prescribed by law.

1. The sheriff must from time to time notify as many persons to attend as it is necessary in order to form a jury of twelve persons qualified to serve as trial jurors in the county court of the county, or in the city and county of New York, in the supreme court, to try the validity of the claim.

2. Upon the trial, witnesses may be examined in behalf of the claimant and of the party at whose instance the property claimed was taken by the sheriff. For the purpose of compelling a witness to attend and testify, the sheriff, upon the application of either party to the inquisition, must issue a subpoena, as prescribed in section 854 of this act, and with like effect; except that a warrant to apprehend or commit a witness, in a case specified in section 855 or section 856 of this act may be issued by a judge of the court in which the action is brought, or by the county judge.

3. The sheriff or under sheriff must preside upon the trial. A witness, produced by either party, must be sworn by the presiding officer, and examined orally in the presence of the jury. A witness who testifies falsely upon such an examination is guilty of perjury in a like case and is punishable in like manner as upon the trial of a civil action.

L. 1895, ch. 946.

Expenses, how paid.

§ 109. [Am'd, 1895.] Upon such a trial there are no costs; but the fees of the sheriff, jurors and witnesses must be taxed, by a judge of the court or the county judge of the county, and must be paid as follows:

1. If the jury by their verdict find the title or the right of possession to the property claimed to be in the claimant, by the party at whose instance the property was taken by the sheriff. 2. If they find adversely to the claimant with respect to all the property claimed, by the claimant.

3. If they find the title or right of possession to only a part of the property claimed, to be in the claimant; each party must pay his own witnesses' fees, and the sheriff's and jurors' fees must be paid, one-half by each party to the inquisition.

Before notifying the jurors, the sheriff may, in his discretion, require each of the parties to the controversy to deposit with him such reasonable sum, as may be necessary to cover his legal fees, and the jurors' fees. The sheriff must return to each party the balance of the sum so deposited by him, after deducting his fees, lawfully chargeable to that party, as prescribed in this section.
