(2) A judgment debtor may not use a challenge to execution form to challenge execution on residential property of the debtor as defined by ORS 18.901 if the judgment creditor has obtained an order under ORS 18.904 authorizing the sale or if the judgment directs the sale or delivery of specific property.

Upon receiving a copy of the challenge, the judgment creditor shall promptly notify the sheriff of the challenge.
