Art. 98 SchKG
Geld, Banknoten, Inhaberpapiere, Wechsel und andere indossable Papiere, Edelmetalle und andere Kostbarkeiten werden vom Betreibungsamt verwahrt.
Andere bewegliche Sachen können einstweilen in den Händen des Schuldners oder eines dritten Besitzers gelassen werden gegen die Verpflichtung, dieselben jederzeit zur Verfügung zu halten.
Auch diese Sachen sind indessen in amtliche Verwahrung zu nehmen oder einem Dritten zur Verwahrung zu übergeben, wenn der Betreibungsbeamte es für angemessen erachtet oder der Gläubiger glaubhaft macht, dass dies zur Sicherung seiner durch die Pfändung begründeten Rechte geboten ist.
Die Besitznahme durch das Betreibungsamt ist auch dann zulässig, wenn ein Dritter Pfandrecht an der Sache hat. Gelangt dieselbe nicht zur Verwertung, so wird sie dem Pfandgläubiger zurückgegeben.
