SECTION 253

Where the property which is the subject of attachment is not registered and where the national laws provide for such registration, the creditor shall be bound to have the property registered at the land registry after he has been duly authorized to do so in a decision which is not subject to appeal, by the President of the competent court of the place where the property is situated. Under pain of nullity, the summons provided for in Article 254 below may only be served after the application for registration has been filed; and the sale may not take place until the land certificate has been issued.
