§ 5230. Executions. (a) Form. An execution shall specify the date that the  judgment  or  order was entered, the court in which it was entered, the amount of the judgment or order and the amount due  thereon  and  it shall  specify  the names of the parties in whose favor and against whom the judgment or order was entered. An execution shall direct  that  only the  property  in  which  a  named judgment debtor or obligor who is not deceased has an interest, or the debts owed to the named judgment debtor or obligor, be levied upon or sold thereunder and shall specify the last known address of that judgment debtor or obligor. Except in  cases  when the  state of New York, or any of its agencies or municipal corporations is the judgment creditor, or if the debt enforced is for child  support, spousal   support,  maintenance  or  alimony,  provided  that  in  those instances the execution contains a legend at the top thereof, above  the caption,  in  sixteen  point bold type with the following language: "The judgment creditor is the state of New York, or any of  its  agencies  or municipal  corporations,  AND/OR the debt enforced is for child support, spousal support, maintenance or alimony.",  an  execution  notice  shall state  that,  pursuant  to  subdivision (l) of section fifty-two hundred five of this article, two thousand five hundred dollars  of  an  account containing direct deposit or electronic payments reasonably identifiable as   statutorily  exempt  payments,  as  defined  in  paragraph  two  of subdivision (l) of section fifty-two hundred five of  this  article,  is exempt  from  execution  and  that  the  garnishee  cannot  levy upon or restrain two thousand five hundred dollars in such an account. Except in cases when the state of New York, or any of its  agencies  or  municipal corporations  is  the  judgment creditor, or if the debt enforced is for child support, spousal support, maintenance or alimony, provided that in those instances the execution contains a  legend  at  the  top  thereof, above  the  caption,  in  sixteen  point  bold  type  with the following language: "The judgment creditor is the state of New York, or any of its agencies or municipal corporations, AND/OR  the  debt  enforced  is  for child  support,  spousal support, maintenance or alimony.", an execution notice shall likewise state that pursuant to subdivision (i) of  section fifty-two  hundred  twenty-two  of  this article, an execution shall not apply to an amount equal to or less than ninety percent of  the  greater of two hundred forty times the federal minimum hourly wage prescribed in the  Fair  Labor  Standards  Act  of 1938 or two hundred forty times the state minimum hourly wage prescribed in section six hundred fifty-two of the labor law as in effect at the time the earnings are payable,  except such  part  as  a  court determines to be unnecessary for the reasonable requirements of the judgment debtor and his or her dependents. Where the judgment or order was entered in a court other than the supreme,  county or  a family court, the execution shall also specify the date on which a transcript of the judgment or order was filed  with  the  clerk  of  the county  in  which  the  judgment  was entered. Where jurisdiction in the action was based upon a levy upon property or debt pursuant to an  order of  attachment,  the  execution shall also state that fact, describe all property and debts levied upon, and direct that only such  property  and debts  be sold thereunder. Where the judgment or order was recovered for all or part of a mortgage debt, the execution shall  also  describe  the mortgaged  property,  specify  the  book  and page where the mortgage is recorded, and direct that no part of the mortgaged  property  be  levied upon or sold thereunder.  (b)  Issuance.  At any time before a judgment or order is satisfied or vacated, an execution may be issued from the supreme court, county court or a family court, in  the  county  in  which  the  judgment  was  first docketed,  by  the  clerk  of the court or the attorney for the judgment creditor as officer of the  court,  to  the  sheriffs  of  one  or  more  counties of the state, directing each of them to satisfy the judgment or order  out  of  the real and personal property of the judgment debtor or obligor and the debts due to him or her. Where the judgment or order  is for  support and is payable to the support collection unit designated by the appropriate social services district, such unit shall be  authorized to  issue  the execution and to satisfy the judgment or order out of the real and personal property of the judgment debtor  or  obligor  and  the debts due to him or her.  (c)  Return.  An execution shall be returned to the clerk of the court from which it was issued or to the support collection unit within  sixty days  after  issuance unless the execution has been served in accordance with section 5231 or subdivision (a) of section 5232. The  time  may  be extended  in writing for a period of not more than sixty additional days by the attorney for the judgment creditor or by the  support  collection unit.  Further  like  extensions  may  be  given by the attorney for the judgment creditor or by  the  support  collection  unit  unless  another execution against the same judgment debtor or obligor has been delivered to the same enforcement officer and has not been returned.  (d)  Records  of  sheriff  or support collection unit. Each sheriff or support collection unit shall keep  a  record  of  executions  delivered showing the names of the parties and the judgment debtor or obligor; the dates of issue and return; the date and time of delivery, which shall be endorsed  upon  the  execution; the amount due at the time the execution was delivered; and the amount of  the  judgment  or  order  and  of  the sheriff's fees unpaid, if any, at the time of the return.  (e)  For  the  purposes  of  this  section "order" shall mean an order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction  directing  the  payment  of support,  alimony  or  maintenance  upon which a "default" as defined in paragraph  seven  of  subdivision  (a)  of  section  fifty-two   hundred forty-one of this article has been established subject to the procedures established  for  the  determination  of  a "mistake of fact" for income executions pursuant to subdivision  (e)  of  section  fifty-two  hundred forty-one  of this article, except that for the purposes of this section only, a default shall not be  founded  upon  retroactive  child  support obligations  as  defined  in paragraph (a) of subdivision one of section four hundred forty of the  family  court  act  and  subdivision  one  of section  two  hundred  forty,  and  paragraph  b  of subdivision nine of section two hundred thirty-six of the domestic relations law.
