If there's a bond involved in a legal case, and the court finds it's not adequate—either because the people backing it aren't reliable or the amount isn't enough—the court can demand a new bond. This decision can happen through a formal request backed by written evidence or initiated by the court itself. The court will then set a deadline, at least five days, for a new bond to be provided. If a sufficient bond isn't supplied in that time, any benefits that came from the original bond are lost immediately, and the court will officially declare this after a simple request from one side.

This law says that if a bond is found to be lacking, either because the people guaranteeing it aren't reliable or the amount isn't enough, an official can demand the person responsible for the bond to explain in court within a set time (3-10 days) why the bond shouldn't be declared insufficient. If they don't show up or fail to provide a good reason, the official can declare the bond insufficient and require a new, adequate one. If a new bond isn't provided within 10 days, the official can cancel any benefits related to the original bond, like licenses or office positions, and these won't be restored until a new bond is made.

If a bond required by court or an officer seems too high, they can reduce it to a more reasonable amount, according to their judgment. This decision must consider any specific limits set by the law for the bond. To request a bond reduction, the person who needs to provide the bond must file a motion or affidavit, following the same process used to claim that a bond is insufficient. The parties benefiting from the bond must be informed of the motion. Once approved, the person can furnish a new bond for the lowered amount, and the same guarantors can back it up if desired.
