N.Y. Lien Law § 106: Sheriff must return warrant

§ 106. Sheriff must return warrant. A sheriff to whom a warrant may

have been delivered pursuant to the provisions of this article, may be

compelled by an order made by the justice issuing it, to return such

warrant with his proceedings thereon and pay over moneys in his hands,

and to take any necessary steps for the safety of the vessel, pursuant

to any order for that purpose. Obedience to such order may be enforced

by attachment against the sheriff on the application of any person

interested therein.
