True or False: A writ of sequestration requires an officer to seize and sell property to satisfy a court.

A writ of sequestration is a legal order that allows a court to take possession of a person's property, but it does not necessarily involve the immediate sale of that property to satisfy a court judgment. Instead, a writ of sequestration typically permits an officer to take possession of the property to prevent its disposal, damage, or loss, essentially holding it until there is a final resolution of a legal claim. The purpose of this writ is to ensure that the property will be available to satisfy a potential future judgment or decree.

In contrast, the process of selling property usually occurs through a different legal mechanism, such as a writ of execution, which directs the officer to sell the property after a final judgment has been rendered. Thus, it is accurate to state that a writ of sequestration does not require an officer to seize and sell property to satisfy a court, confirming that the answer is indeed false.
