Section 11-23-21 - New bond may be required

If the sureties on the claimant's bond shall become insufficient, the court, on motion of the plaintiff, may require the claimant to give a new bond or to surrender to the officer the property claimed. If new bond be given, the sureties thereon shall be jointly liable with the sureties on the first bond, but if the claimant fail to give a new bond and to surrender the property, judgment shall be rendered against him and the sureties on his bond as by default. If the claimant surrender the property as required, the sureties on the bond given shall thereby be discharged, and the cause shall be proceeded with as if the officer had retained the property in the first instance.Codes, 1857, ch. 61, art. 303; 1871, § 866; 1880, § 1781; 1892, § 4432; 1906, § 4997; Hemingway's 1917, § 3271; 1930, § 3431; 1942, § 1028.
