Execution is used to satisfy fines by which method?

• A. Issuing arrest warrants
• B. Seizing assets without selling
• C. Selling the defendant's property to satisfy the fine
• D. Imprisoning the defendant

Answer: (C)

Execution for fines means the court orders the debtor’s property to be liquidated so cash can be raised to pay the amount owed. This typically involves levying on real or personal property and selling it at auction, with the proceeds applied to the fine. The other approaches don’t fulfill the obligation in the same way: arrest warrants are about bringing someone before the court, not raising funds; seizing assets without selling wouldn’t produce cash to satisfy the fine; and imprisonment is a separate punishment for nonpayment, not the process of converting assets into payment.
