§ 18-2-203 — Failure to give commissioner and receiver bond

The failure of the clerk to execute the special bond provided for in § 18-2-202 shall not subject the clerk to any penalty, but the court may confide the particular business to such other person as will give the required security, and, in the absence of the special bond, the clerk and the clerk's sureties will be liable, on the regular official bond, for all property or money with which the clerk may be properly chargeable as special commissioner or receiver.
