                                 CODE OF VIRGINIA

EXAMINATION OF TREASURER&#8217;S BOND; WHEN COURT TO REQUIRE NEW BOND (§
58.1-3125)

Each circuit court shall enter an order in each year requiring the commissioner
of accounts of such court or, if it is improper for such commissioner to act or
if there is no commissioner of accounts of such court, then the commissioner of
accounts of some other court to be designated in the order, to examine the
official bond of the treasurer of such county or city, except when the surety
upon the bond is such a surety company as is provided for in § 49-15. Such
commissioner shall report to the court at its next term thereafter whether the
bond is sufficient in all respects and at the same time certify a copy of such
report to the Comptroller. If the bond is reported as insufficient, the court
shall make an order requiring the treasurer, within thirty days after he has
been served with a copy of the order as a notice, to execute a new bond, which
may be given before the court. If such new bond is not given within the time
prescribed, the office shall be deemed vacant. The commissioner&#8217;s fees
shall be paid out of the county or city funds.
