Section 1608. Appellate division to compel renewal of marshal's bond; removal of marshal  


Latest version.
  • Whenever judgment shall be rendered on the bond of a
      marshal, or the bond shall be reduced as provided in the last  preceding
      section, the city clerk shall report the fact to the appellate division.
      If  the amount of the judgment is equal to or greater than the amount of
      the bond the appellate division shall direct the marshal  to  furnish  a
      new  bond;  or, if the amount of the judgment is less than the amount of
      the bond, or in case of a  reduction  thereof,  the  appellate  division
      shall  direct the marshal to furnish an additional bond in the penal sum
      of double the amount of the judgment or the reduction.  If  the  marshal
      fails  to  comply  with  such  direction  within  ten  days after notice
      thereof, his failure  shall  constitute  ground  for  his  removal  from
      office.
