New York Security For Refund.




 
    §  971. Security for refund. The court, in its discretion, may require
  any person, before he receives his portion of the proceeds of  the  sale
  to  give  such  security  as  it  directs,  to  the state, or the county
  treasurer, who shall hold it for the use  and  benefit  of  the  persons
  interested,  or  to  such  parties or other persons as it prescribes, to
  refund the same, or a portion thereof, with interest, if  it  thereafter
  appears that he was not entitled thereto.
