Full text of Florida Florida Statutes § 76.14 — Writ; effect of levy., with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 76.14. Writ; effect of levy.
The levy of a writ of attachment does not operate to dispossess the tenant of any lands or tenements, but a levy on real or personal property binds the property attached, except against preexisting liens. Levies on the same property under successive attachments have precedence as liens in the order in which they are made. A levy binds real estate as against subsequent creditors or purchasers only from the time of the record by the clerk of the circuit court of a notice of the levy and a description of the property levied on.
