Sec. 9. (a) When an execution issues against the real or personal property of any person, the sheriff shall levy the execution, first upon that part of the property designated by the person, if there is no reasonable doubt that the person is the owner of the property and if designated in time to enable the sheriff to levy and sell without unnecessary delay.
(b) If no property is designated as described in subsection (a), the sheriff shall levy the execution upon any property of the debtor that can be found, subject to execution.
(c) If the designated property is insufficient to satisfy the execution, the sheriff shall levy the execution upon other property, subject to execution, as can be most readily found, sufficient, in addition to the property designated, to satisfy the execution.
