Vt. R. Prob. P. 70

As amended through November 4, 2024
Rule 70 - Judgment for Specific Acts; Vesting Title

If a judgment directs a party to execute a conveyance of land or to deliver deeds or other documents or to perform any other specific act and the party fails to comply within the time specified, the court may direct the act to be done at the cost of the disobedient party by some other person appointed by the court and the act when so done has like effect as if done by the party, except that the appointee of the court shall have no authority to execute a conveyance of land outside the State of Vermont. The court may also in a proper case adjudge the party in contempt. If real property is within the state, the court in lieu of directing a conveyance thereof may enter a judgment divesting the title of any party and vesting it in others and such judgment has the effect of a conveyance executed in due form of law, if a certified copy thereof is recorded in the office in which a deed of such real estate is required by law to be recorded.
