Reference for Bava Metzia 29:7

וסבר שמואל לוקח מגזלן לית ליה שבחא

and a verbally contracted debt does not entitle [the creditor] to exact payment from encumbered property? — Here we deal with a case where [the robber first] stood his trial and then sold [the field].<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' The reason why encumbered property is liable to be seized by the seller's creditor who has written evidence as to his claim is that the writing of the document ensures publicity, which should prevent people from advancing money on such property. A trial in Court has the same effect as regards publicity and the consequent warning to would-be mortgagees. ');">⁷</span>
