1. “The Execution Debtor complains that he lost a substantial right when he was not afforded the opportunity to have the judgment satisfied out of his personal property before the sale of his realty as the officer conducting the sale is required to do under the provisions of A.R.S. § 12-1553, subsec. 1.... The provision above [subsec. 1] is not applicable to this case since the Execution Creditor had a prior judgment lien on the real property; A.R.S. § 12-1553, subsec. 2 governs____ Nowhere in subparagraph 2 does there appear any provision respecting personal property.”

2. “This argument must fail for still further reasons. The Execution Debtor was aware of the execution sale from March 3,1971 to the date of sale on May 6,1971 and never pointed out to anyone that he had personal property to be levied upon. Having failed to disclose his personal property, he cannot now complain that the judgment was not satisfied first from his personal property.”

3. “However, the relief sought by appellant is equitable in its nature and the maxim, “He who seeks equity must do equity,” governs it. Hence, before he is entitled to what he is seeking, it will be necessary for him to pay the amount of the judgment, together with the interest and costs.”
