in effect

C.R.S. § 13-57-101 Ten days' notice of sale

13-57-101. Ten days' notice of sale. No goods or chattels shall be sold by virtue of any execution unless previous notice of such sale has been given for at least ten days successively in the same manner as required in the sale of real estate upon execution.

C.R.S. § 13-57-102 Future delivery bond - conditions

13-57-102. Future delivery bond - conditions. When a sheriff or other officer has levied an execution, issued out of any court of record, upon the personal property of a defendant, or is about to make such levy and the defendant is desirous of retaining the property in his possession, such sheriff shall take a bond from the defendant with security that the property shall be forthcoming or delivered at such time and place as is named in the condition and that the property shall not be disposed of nor injured. A bond so taken shall not be considered void as taken by color of office.

C.R.S. § 13-57-103 Breach of bond - levy on security - sale

13-57-103. Breach of bond - levy on security - sale. Where bonds are taken by a sheriff for the future delivery of property and the defendant or his security does not return the property named in the bond conformably to the condition thereof, the officer having such execution may proceed to execute the same in the same manner as if no levy had been made. In case the defendant's property, or a sufficiency thereof, cannot be found, the officer may proceed to levy on so much of the property of the security in the delivery bond as will make the amount called for in such bond. The property which may be so taken may be sold, by giving notice thereof, as prescribed in section 13-57-101, and no future delivery bond shall be allowed.
