2771. A person against whom the hypothecary right is exercised may, where he has received the property in payment of his prior or hypothecary claim ranking earlier than the claim contemplated by the prior notice, or where he has paid prior or hypothecary claims ranking earlier, require that the creditor himself sell the property or cause it to be sold under judicial authority; in that case, he is bound to surrender the property only subject to the creditor giving him security that the property will be sold at a price sufficient to ensure full payment of his earlier ranking prior or hypothecary claims.
