Sec. 9-312.
Perishable property.
If any property distrained is of a
perishable nature and in
danger of immediate waste or decay, and is not replevied or bonded, the
landlord or his or her agent or attorney may, upon giving notice to the
defendant or his or her attorney, or if
neither can be found, without any notice, apply to the court in which
the action is pending describing the property, and showing that it is so
in danger, and if the court is satisfied that the property is of a
perishable nature and in danger of immediate waste or decay, and if the
defendant or his or her attorney is not served with notice, or does not appear,
that neither the defendant nor the attorney can be found, the court may
enter an order to
the person having possession of the property, directing the sale thereof
upon such time and notice, terms and conditions as the court shall
deem for the best interests of the parties concerned. The money resulting
from such sale shall be deposited with the clerk of the court in which
the action is pending, there to abide the event of the action.
