Section 5102. Enforcement of judgment or order awarding possession of real property or a chattel

A judgment or order, or a part thereof,  awarding
  possession  of  real  property  or  a  chattel  may  be  enforced  by an
  execution, which shall particularly describe the property and  designate
  the  party  to  whom  the  judgment  or order awards its possession. The
  execution shall comply with the provisions of section 5230, except  that
  it shall direct the sheriff to deliver possession of the property to the
  party designated.  In an action to recover a chattel, where the judgment
  awards  possession  of the chattel and in the alternative its value, the
  execution shall also direct the sheriff, if the chattel cannot be  found
  within  his  county,  to levy upon real and personal property as upon an
  execution to enforce a money  judgment.  After  the  death  of  a  party
  against  whom  a  judgment or order awarding possession of real property
  has been obtained, an order granting leave to issue such  execution  may
  be  granted upon twenty days' notice, to be served in the same manner as
  a summons, to the occupants of the real property and  to  the  heirs  or
  devisees of the deceased party.
