Section 9-218. Proceedings by boards of canvassers to carry into effect a court order

1. Upon the re-convening of the state board  of  canvassers
  or  any  county board of canvassers, or of the board of elections of the
  city of New York as a county or city board of canvassers, by order of  a
  court  of competent jurisdiction, for the purpose of correcting an error
  or of performing a duty imposed by law or  by  an  order  of  the  court
  granted  pursuant to law, the meeting for that purpose shall be deemed a
  continuance of its regular session, and any new or corrected  statement,
  determination  or  certificate which is made to give effect to the order
  shall  stand  in  lieu  of  the  original  statement,  determination  or
  certificate.
    2. When a new or corrected statement or certificate, to give effect to
  an  order  of  the  court,  shall  vary  from  the original statement or
  certificate respecting the votes cast for an office for which the  state
  board  of  canvassers  is  required to canvass statements made by county
  boards, the board of elections forthwith shall transmit certified copies
  of the new or corrected statement or certificates to the state board  of
  elections.  The  state  board  of canvassers shall meet within five days
  after such a certified copy has been received  by  the  state  board  of
  elections.    From  such  certified  copy,  such  board shall make a new
  statement as to the votes for such office cast in the state or political
  subdivision in which such office is  filled,  and  shall  determine  and
  declare  what  person or persons whose votes are affected by such new or
  corrected statement have been, by the greatest  number  of  votes,  duly
  elected  to the office or offices. The state board of canvassers and the
  state board of elections shall, respectively, have the same  powers  and
  duties  in  respect  to  new  or  corrected statements that they have in
  respect to original statements.
