Section 21-15-13 - Justification by defendant's sureties and delivery of property-Responsibility of sheriff-Delivery to plaintiff on failure to justify

The defendant's sureties, upon a notice to the plaintiff of not less than two nor more than six days, shall justify in the same manner as upon bail on arrest; upon such justification the sheriff shall deliver the property to the defendant. The sheriff shall be responsible for the sufficiency of the defendant's sureties until they justify, or until justification is completed or expressly waived, and may retain the property until that time; but if they, or others in their place, fail to justify at the time and place appointed, he shall deliver the property to the plaintiff.
