576.05 WARRANT; SHERIFF TO TAKE POSSESSION OF PROPERTY; FEES AND
COSTS.
The court may thereupon issue a warrant directed to the sheriff or a deputy, which may run
throughout the state, commanding the officer to take possession of the property named in the
schedule and hold it subject to the order of the court and make return of the warrant as soon as
may be, with the officer's doings thereon and with a schedule of the property so taken. The officer
shall post a copy of the warrant upon each parcel of land named in the schedule and cause so
much of the warrant as relates to land to be recorded in the office of the county recorder for the
county where the land is located. The officer shall receive such fees for serving the warrant as
the court allows, but not more than those established by law for similar service upon a writ of
attachment. If the petition is dismissed, the fees and the cost of publishing and serving the notice
hereinafter provided shall be paid by the petitioner; if a receiver is appointed, they shall be paid
by the receiver and allowed in the receiver's account.
