Local Rule LAR65.1.1: Security for Costs

LAR65.1.1 Security for Costs Except in suits in forma pauperis, or in suits whereby statute a party is relieved of prepaying fees and costs or of giving security therefor, or unless otherwise ordered by the court, no process in rem or of attachment must issue unless the party requesting issuance files a stipulation in the sum of $250.00 with good and solvent surety, conditioned as provided in Admiralty Rule E(2)(b).

Whenever in these rules the filing of a bond or stipulation required or permitted, the party required or permitted to file such bond or stipulation may, in lieu thereof, deposit the requisite amount of money in the registry of the court as security.
