60-2409. Notice of sale of personal property; resale

    The officer who levies upon personal property, before such officer proceeds to sell the same, shall cause public notice to be  given of the time and place of sale, for at least 14 days before the day of sale. The notice shall be given by publication at least once each week for two consecutive weeks in some newspaper meeting the qualifications prescribed by K.S.A. 64-101, and amendments thereto, or, in the discretion of the court, by putting up advertisements in five public places in the county, one of which shall be on a bulletin board established for public notices in the county courthouse. Within seven days of the date of first publication or posting of notice, plaintiff shall send by restricted mail a copy of such notice to the defendant and to those persons known by the plaintiff to have a security interest in the property. Such notice shall be sent to the last known address of the person to whom sent and  shall be in compliance with K.S.A. 84-1-202(d) and (e), and amendments thereto. If the personal property levied upon cannot be sold at the execution sale for want of bidders, the judgment creditor may direct the officer to return the execution showing that fact or, at such creditor's option, such creditor may report the same to the judge and obtain an order permitting a second sale under the same  execution and an extension of the return day of the execution if that be necessary.
