MS Code § 11-5-157 (2019) (N/A)
Copy with citation
Copy as parenthetical citation

On an application for the appointment of a receiver, the court or chancellor may, in the exercise of sound discretion, in lieu of a receiver, order that the party against whom the receiver is asked, execute bond, to be approved by the court or chancellor, payable to the party who asks for the appointment, with sufficient sureties, in a sufficient penalty, to be fixed by the court or chancellor, conditioned according to the nature of the case, as the court or chancellor may direct. Upon the execution, approval, and filing of such bond, the receiver shall not be appointed; and any decree rendered in the cause on final hearing against the principal obligor in the bond shall be rendered against the sureties therein, within the scope of its conditions and penalty. On an application to remove a receiver who shall have been appointed without notice, the court or chancellor may exercise the same discretion, and, in lieu of retaining the receiver, may remove him upon the execution, approval, and filing of such bond; and decree may be rendered thereon as if given on the application for the appointment of a receiver.
