In all cases where the personal estate of the debtor, subject to execution, is insufficient to satisfy the execution, the real estate is exempt from levy and sale until the personal estate is levied upon and sold, unless the debtor directs otherwise. The principal messuage, lands, or tenements of the debtor, or upon which the debtor may reside, shall not be levied upon unless other property cannot be found sufficient to satisfy the execution in the hands of the sheriff.[Pre-1998 Recodification Citation: 34-1-36-12.]As added by P.L.1-1998, SEC.51.
