21-17A-8.
Additional security--Application by defendant--Joint sureties.
If a defendant is not
satisfied with the amount specified in the bond or with the surety he may, upon five days' notice to
the plaintiff, apply to a judge for additional security. The judge may require the plaintiff to give and
file another bond, to be approved by him, in such sum as he may deem proper, not exceeding the
appraised value of the property attached. The surety shall justify as provided in § 21-17A-7, but if
there is more than one surety they may be accepted if they are jointly responsible for the required
sum.
