Uniform Civil Procedure Rules 2005

The proceeds of enforcement of a writ for the levy of property are to be applied as follows—

firstly, to the Sheriff to cover the Sheriff’s fees and expenses in executing the writ,

secondly, to the judgment creditor to satisfy the judgment debt,

thirdly, to the judgment debtor as to any amount remaining.

If the Sheriff receives writs for the levy of property (whether from the same or from different courts) in relation to more than one judgment creditor, the judgment creditors are to be paid from the proceeds of enforcement of the writs in the order in which the writs were received by the Sheriff.
