P.) section 701.620, the property cannot be sold at a sheriff's sale unless the highest bid received by the sheriff exceeds (1) the amount of all preferred labor claims that are required by C. C. P. section 1206 to be satisfied from the sales proceeds, (2) if the purchaser at the sale is not the Board, the amount of any deposits made pursuant to C. C. P. section 720.260 and (3) the taxpayer's exemption from motor vehicles, household furnishings or tools of trade if applicable to the property to be sold.
