Vt. Stat. tit. 12 § 3473
When it appears that the security or recognizance for the prosecution of a pending cause or an appeal or the bail taken by the officer on the writ, is insufficient to secure the party for whose benefit the same was taken, the court, or the clerk in vacation, in his or her discretion, may order sufficient bail to be entered by a certain time, or that judgment be rendered against the party neglecting to comply with such order. Within the time provided, the party so required to furnish bail shall file with the clerk of the court a bond with sufficient surety in the amount required, to be approved by the clerk, or shall with sufficient surety, so approved, enter into a personal recognizance before the clerk in such amount. Such recognizance shall be entered by the clerk upon the docket of the cause.
