(1) Writ proceedings against an enforcement debtor's interest as
a joint tenant of land sever the joint tenancy when an agency has
entered into an agreement to sell the debtor's interest.
(2) If a writ is registered against land in which an enforcement
debtor holds an interest in joint tenancy and the enforcement debtor
dies, the writ shall continue to bind the land in an amount equal to
the lesser of
(a) the amount owing on the writ, and
(b) the value that the debtor's interest in the land would have
been if the joint tenancy had been severed immediately
before the debtor's death.
