Section 207. Warrant to seize chattel; proceedings thereupon

If the
  plaintiff is not in possession of the chattel, a warrant may be  granted
  by  the  court,  or  a  judge  thereof,  commanding the sheriff, or such
  enforcement officer as is provided by law to execute the mandates of the
  particular court, to seize the chattel and safely keep it to  abide  the
  final  judgment  in the action. The provisions of the civil practice law
  and rules, and the provisions of the court act of the particular  court,
  relating  to  an  order  of  attachment  shall  apply to such warrant of
  seizure, and to the proceedings to procure it, and  after  it  has  been
  issued, except as otherwise expressly prescribed in this article.
