EXECUTION PAREE
(bouvier) | EXECUTION PAREE. By the term execution paree, which is used in Louisiana, is
meant a right founded on an authentic act; that is, and passed before a
notary, by which the creditor may immediately, without citation or summons,
seize and cause to be sold, the property of his debtor, out of the proceeds
of which to receive his payment. It imports a confession of judgment, and is
not unlike a warrant of attorney. Code of Pr. of Lo. art. 732; 6 Toull. n.
208; 7 Toull. 99.

EXECUTIONER
(bouvier) | EXECUTIONER. The name given to him who puts criminals to death, according to
their sentence; a hangman.

executioners by profession. It is the duty of the sheriff or marshal to
perform this office, or to procure a deputy to do it for him.

SAISIE-EXECUTION
(bouvier) | SAISIE-EXECUTION, French law. This term is used in Louisiana. It is a writ
of execution by which the creditor places under the custody of the law, the
movables, which are liable to seizure, of his debtor, in order that out of
them he may obtain payment of the debt due by him Code of Practice, art.
641, Dall. Diet. h.t.. It is a writ very similar to the fieri facias.

STAY OF EXECUTION
(bouvier) | STAY OF EXECUTION, practice. A term during which no execution can issue on a
judgment.
2. It is either conventional, when the parties agree that no execution
shall issue for a certain period; or it is granted by law, usually on
condition of entering bail or security for the money.
3. An execution issued before the expiration of the stay is irregular
and will be set aside; and the plaintiff in such case may be liable to an
action for damages. What is said above refers to civil cases.
4. In criminal cases when a woman is capitally convicted, and she is
proved to be enceinte, (q.v.) there shall be a stay of execution till after

WRIT OF EXECUTION
(bouvier) | WRIT OF EXECUTION, practice. A writ to put in force the sentence that the
law has given: it is addressed to the Sheriff (and in the courts of the
United States, to the marshal) commanding him, according to the nature of
the case, either to give the plaintiff possession of lands; or to enforce
the delivery of a chattel which was the subject of the action; or to levy
for the plaintiff, the debt, or damager, and costs recovered; or to levy for
the defendant his costs; and that, either upon the body of the opposite
party, his lands, or goods, or in some cases, upon his body, land, and
goods; the extent and manner of the execution directed, always depending
upon the nature of the judgment. 3 Bl. Com. 413.
2. Writs of execution are supposed to be actually awarded by the judges
in court; but no such award is in general, actually made. The attorney,
after signing final judgment, sues out of the proper office a writ of
execution, in the form to which he conceives he would be entitled upon such
judgment as he. has entered, if such entry has been actually made; and, if
not made, then upon such as he thinks he is entitled to enter; and he does
this, of course, upon peril that, if he takes a wrong execution, the
proceeding is legal and void, and the opposite party entitled to redress.
Steph. Pl, 137, 8. See Ca. Sa.; Execution; Fi. Fa.; Haberefa. possessionem;
Vend. Exp.
