    §  1604.  Bond of marshal.  (a) No marshal shall be permitted to enter
  upon the duties of his office until he shall have given a bond as herein
  prescribed.  The  bond  shall  be  executed  by  the  marshal  with  two
  sufficient  sureties, who shall be residents of the city of New York and
  each of whom shall be the owner of real estate therein of the  value  of
  double the penalty of the bond. The penalty of the bond shall be the sum
  of  sixty  thousand dollars.   Except as hereinafter provided, beginning
  July first, nineteen hundred ninety-nine, the penalty of the bond  shall
  increase to the sum of eighty thousand dollars and beginning July first,
  two  thousand,  the penalty of the bond shall increase to the sum of one
  hundred  thousand  dollars.  If  on  June  thirtieth,  nineteen  hundred
  ninety-nine  the  provisions of subdivision (s-1) of section one hundred
  five of the civil practice law and rules and paragraph b of  subdivision
  one of section sixteen hundred nine of the New York city civil court act
  are   repealed  pursuant  to  section  three  of  chapter  four  hundred
  fifty-five of the laws of nineteen hundred ninety-seven, the penalty  of
  the  bond  shall remain sixty thousand dollars and shall not increase to
  the sum of eighty thousand  dollars  on  July  first,  nineteen  hundred
  ninety-nine or to the sum of one hundred thousand dollars on July first,
  two  thousand.  The bond shall provide that the marshal and the sureties
  shall jointly and severally answer to the  city  of  New  York  and  any
  persons  that  may complain, for the true and faithful execution by such
  marshal of the duties of his office. The bond  shall  be  submitted  for
  approval  to  a  judge  of  the court and such judge shall have power to
  require that the sureties justify before him within five days after  the
  bond  shall  have  been  submitted, and shall approve or reject the bond
  within five days thereafter. When so approved, the bond shall  be  filed
  with the city clerk of the city of New York. A marshal already qualified
  for  and  in office on any date upon which the penalty of the bond shall
  increase pursuant to this subdivision shall  within  thirty  days  after
  such  date  file  with  the  city  clerk  an  additional bond, otherwise
  executed as provided for herein and approved by a judge of the court, in
  an amount sufficient to bring the total  amount  of  such  bond  to  the
  penalty amount provided in this subdivision.
    (b)  The  bond must be executed, approved and filed within thirty days
  after the appointment of the marshal or  he  shall  be  deemed  to  have
  declined  his  appointment  and another person shall be appointed in his
  place.
