2006 New York Code - Default.



 
    § 474. Default. A default in the terms of the order shall constitute a
  breach of the undertaking. When there has been a default the court shall
  cause  an  affidavit  to  be  drawn,  verified  and  filed by any person
  familiar with the  facts.  The  surety  shall  thereupon  be  personally
  served,  or  served  by  registered  mail  at  the  address given in the
  undertaking or subsequent address furnished by said surety  in  writing,
  with notice of such default and shall be required to attend at the court
  on  a  day  certain and show cause why judgment should not be entered on
  the undertaking and the amount thereof applied  to  the  relief  of  the
  petitioner for the amount in default. If the surety appears and pays the
  amount in arrears the court may remit the forfeiture. Inability to serve
  the  surety  shall  not  be  prejudicial  to  the renewal of proceedings
  against the respondent.
