Reference for Ketubot 102:1

יש בהן אחריות נכסים לא יחזיר שבית דין נפרעין מהן

he should not return them [to the creditor] if they recorded a lien on the [debtor’s] property, since the court would exact repayment from the property. But if they did not record a lien on the [debtor’s] property he may return them, since the court would not exact payment from the property, according to Rabbi Meir.
