(a) To the court costs of the action including the sheriff's expenses and cost of publication;
(b) in accordance with the provisions of K.S.A. 60-2406, and amendments thereto;
(c) in satisfaction of all judgments rendered in the action against the defendant or the property in accordance with the priority determined by the court;

Such security interest holder must serve the debtor-defendant with notice of such demand within 14 days after such filing and furnish proof of such notice to the court.
