(a) No lands or tenements shall be sold by virtue of any
execution or decree of foreclosure unless:
(i) The sale is by public vendue between the hours of
10:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. of the same day;
(ii) The time and place of holding the sale was
previously advertised for four (4) consecutive weeks in a legal
newspaper of general circulation in the county where the lands
and tenements are situate; and
(iii) The foreclosing mortgagee, judgment creditor,
other foreclosing lienor or an authorized agent of the
foreclosing party is present at the sale or has previously
waived to the sheriff conducting the sale the right to appear
and bid at the sale. The sheriff conducting the sale shall not
be considered to be the authorized agent of the foreclosing
party unless the foreclosing party has given the sheriff a
specified opening bid to be presented by the sheriff on behalf
of the foreclosing party and the sheriff actually presents the
opening bid. Any foreclosure sale conducted without complying
with the terms of this section is void, in which case the
mortgage, power of sale, judgment or other lien which is the
subject of the voided sale is not extinguished or exhausted, but
may be properly foreclosed in a subsequent foreclosure sale in
compliance with applicable law.
(b) The notice shall state the names of the plaintiff and
defendant in the action, and the time and place of sale. In all
notices the lands or tenements to be sold shall be described
with reasonable certainty by appropriate description. The
notice shall state "The property being foreclosed upon may be
subject to other liens and encumbrances that will not be
extinguished at the sale and any prospective purchaser should
research the status of title before submitting a bid." If any
officer sells any lands or tenements by virtue of any execution
or decree, otherwise than as provided, the officer so offending
shall forfeit and pay five hundred dollars ($500.00) for every
offense, to be recovered with costs in any court of record in
this state by the person whose lands were advertised and sold.
