### 945 Writ of sequestration
> > (1) A writ of sequestration is to be in accordance with the prescribed form.
>
> > (2) If a person fails to comply with a judgment or order within the period limited by the judgment or order, the person prosecuting the judgment or order is entitled, at the expiration of that period, to issue a writ of sequestration against the estate and effects of the person failing to comply, without obtaining an order for that purpose.
>
> > (3) A writ of sequestration under this rule has the same effect as a writ of sequestration issued out of the Court in its jurisdiction in equity before the commencement of the Act and the proceeds of such a sequestration may be dealt with in the same manner as the proceeds of a writ of sequestration were dealt with by the Court in its equity jurisdiction before that commencement.
