NJSA 2A:15-72. Exception to bond

NJSA 2A:15-72. Exception to bond
Where the nonresident party files a bond and with it an affidavit of the surety that he is a resident of this state and worth, above all debts and liabilities, more than double the amount of the bond, or in the case of a corporate surety, other sufficient justification, no exception may be taken to the surety. But if the affidavit or other sufficient justification is not filed, the party demanding the security may within 10 days after receiving the notice of the filing of the bond, give notice to the nonresident party that he excepts to the surety. Upon such exception, the nonresident party shall file the affidavit or other justification or file a new bond with a like affidavit or other justification, or make a deposit as aforesaid, and give the party making the demand notice thereof.
